Seven earthquakes have been recorded in the region on May 5-7.

"There has been an increase in the number of earthquakes, but no increase in power outages," said Head of the National Service for Seismic Defense at the Ministry of Emergency Situations Hrachya Petrosyan during a press conference today.

According to the expert, there is a deficit of energy with a 5.6 magnitude in the region, which can be complemented by another earthquake.

"The next earthquake will be 5-6 points on the Richter Scale."

Head of the Department for the Seismic Level of Buildings at the RA Ministry of Emergency Situations Gurgen Namaryan says Armenian society is not ready enough to resist the earthquake simply because a large number of buildings in Armenia can't withstand earthquakes.
