The fire broke out in the early hours of Thursday at a barracks near Armenia's restive eastern border with Azerbaijan.
Initial reports said the fire had been caused by a violation of safety rules.
But Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan revealed later that servicemen had been using petrol to light a stove.
He told a cabinet meeting that preliminary inquiries indicated an attempt had been made to "pour gasoline from a five-litre canister into the heater", Armenpress quoted him as saying.
