CLUSTERS of balloons exploded on Friday during a political rally in the central square of Armenia's capital, injuring at least 144 people, authorities said.
The Emergencies Ministry said 104 of them had to be hospitalized with burns after the explosion in Yerevan, which it said was caused by a smoker who lit a cigarette near the balloons. Health Minister Artyom Pushkian said no one had life-threatening injuries. The balloons were supposed to be flown at a Republican Party rally ahead of today's parliamentary vote.
