YEREVAN, Armenia — Armenian authorities have arrested three men in connection with an alleged plot uncovered by U.S. authorities to smuggle Russian military weapons into the United States, a senior security official said.
The three suspects allegedly worked with Artur Solomonyan, an Armenian who was among 18 people charged by U.S. authorities earlier this month in an alleged scheme to smuggle grenade launchers, shoulder-fired missiles and other weapons into the United States, said Grach Arutyunian, a National Security Service official.
He said no weapons have been smuggled out of Armenia and that the three suspects had helped take digital pictures of weapons at Solomonyan’s request at an Armenian military base. (AP)
