STEPANAKERT. – The Artsakh [Nagorno-Karabakh] capital city Stepanakert airport will be reopened next week.

“The airplanes will soon take off and land in the airport,” head of the Civil Aviation at the Government of Arstakh Dmitriy Adbashyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

Perspectives of resuming works of the airport bring forth hysteria in Azerbaijan. It threatens to shoot civilian jets flying to Stepanakert. Such threats directly contradict to the international law on civil aviation.

The airport is going to serve for 100 passengers in an hour, while the Air Artsakh will implement the flights.
