Yerevan is experiencing a transportation collapse as heavy snowfall and uncleaned roads have brought public transit to a standstill. Buses across the city are unable to move, leaving thousands of commuters stranded at bus stops for hours in freezing temperatures.
Despite assurances from city authorities that public utilities and district administrations would be fully engaged in snow removal efforts, the streets remain largely uncleaned. Many residents have taken to social media to express their frustration, criticizing officials for failing to prepare for winter weather and ensure road safety.
Traffic congestion has worsened, with cars struggling to navigate snow-covered streets. Meanwhile, public transport services have yet to provide clear solutions or an estimated timeline for when operations will resume normally.
According to the National Weather Service, snowfall is expected to continue from the afternoon of February 19 through February 23, with heavy snowfalls on Thursday and Friday. Additionally, temperatures are forecasted to drop significantly, reaching -2 to -3 degrees Celsius during the daytime on February 21-23.
As snowfall continues, residents are urging city officials to improve road maintenance efforts and restore transportation as soon as possible.

Friday’s performance was part of a larger shift. For the week, the Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell 2%, 2.9%, and 3.5%, respectively. During the operations, Sebi officials seized various records and documents, including 34 mobile phones, six laptops, four desktops, four tablets, two hard drive disks and one pen drive from the custody of these persons. It is unclear who runs the account, although Russia's official Ministry of Foreign Affairs Twitter account promoted the Telegram channel on Saturday and claimed it was operated by "a group of experts & journalists." The perpetrators use various names to carry out the investment scams. They may also impersonate or clone licensed capital market intermediaries by using the names, logos, credentials, websites and other details of the legitimate entities to promote the illegal schemes. At the start of 2018, the company attempted to launch an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) which would enable it to enable payments (and earn the cash that comes from doing so). The initial signals were promising, especially given Telegram’s user base is already fairly crypto-savvy. It raised an initial tranche of cash – worth more than a billion dollars – to help develop the coin before opening sales to the public. Unfortunately, third-party sales of coins bought in those initial fundraising rounds raised the ire of the SEC, which brought the hammer down on the whole operation. In 2020, officials ordered Telegram to pay a fine of $18.5 million and hand back much of the cash that it had raised.
