Armenian opposition leaders have called for an early election at a mass rally in the capital, Yerevan.

Protesters marched through the city centre, demanding the resignation of President Serg Sarkissen, who was elected in 2008.

Opposition members also marked the anniversary of post-election riots in which 10 people died.
