After visiting the Avenue of Martyrs, the protesters moved towards the Cabinet of Ministers headquarters but were stopped by the police. The efforts of police chiefs to persuade the protesters to stop their action did not yield any results. The pickets started a march chanting "Karabakh or Death!".
