Armenia’s parliament descended into chaos on October 29 as lawmakers from the ruling party and opposition traded punches and kicks during a heated debate, with a chair also seen flying through the chamber. According to Armenian news agency Armenpress, the confrontation began after ruling party MP Taron Chakhoyan raised a controversial pre-election remark linked to opposition leader Narek Karapetyan’s cousin. The fight spilled into a corridor, and an ambulance later arrived at the building. Officials from both sides offered competing accounts of how the clash began.
