General Strike Paralyzes Armenian Capital
Normal life in the Armenian capital, Yerevan, ground to halt after thousands of supporters of protest leader Nikol Pashinian joined mass protests and a general strike on May 2. Pashinian had called for a day of nonviolent, civil disobedience after the Armenian parliament rejected his bid to become interim prime minister. (Photos by RFE/RL's Giorgi Gogua)
