More than 10,000 people are currently evacuated from their native communities, forced to find a shelter in other settlements of Artsakh, where relative safety can be provided. Nagorno Karabakh Ombudsman Gegham Stepanyan reported in X.

“Among them are women, children and elderly, many of whom have been displaced for several times in their life already due to the Azerbaijani aggression. With no proper food, medication, hygiene essentials — this is a national catastrophe in real time and a gross violation of all fundamental human rights” he wrote.
