Police officers detained at least eight people at a protest demanding the resignation of Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan in Yerevan on Monday.

Protesters were seen gathering at the city's Republic Square, marching through streets, and being detained by police officers.

Pro-government MP Sisak Gabrielyan was seen clashing with opposition representatives.

Eight people were delivered to police stations as a result of the unrest, according to sources citing Armenia's Interior Ministry.

Nikol Pashinyan announced on Friday that he was ready to hold early parliamentary elections in 2021 and leave his post "only by the people's decision."

Protests in Yerevan broke out after Armenia and Azerbaijan signed a Russian-brokered deal to end the fighting in Nagorno-Karabakh on November 9. As per the trilateral agreement, a number of Nagorno-Karabakh districts came under the control of Baku. The unrest in Yerevan resumed after Prime Minister Pashinyan rejected the call by the opposition to step down by December 8.
