'Over 100,000' refugees flee from Nagorno-Karabakh
- Over 84,000 residents have fled Nagorno-Karabakh, a region in Azerbaijan, and sought refuge in Armenia, as the territory undergoes a crisis.
- A military offensive by Azerbaijan has displaced thousands and forced the government of Nagorno-Karabakh to surrender. The region has been cut off from the outside world since last December, leading to a nine-month siege and widespread starvation.
- The number of refugees entering Armenia in the past week reached 100,417, accounting for the majority of Nagorno-Karabakh's estimated population of 120,000. The UN refugee agency supports Armenia's claim that over 100,000 people have fled the region since Azerbaijan’s seizure.
