Azerbaijan: More than 40,000 refugees flee to Armenia from Nagorno-Karabakh – BBC News


Some 42,500 ethnic Armenians have now fled Nagorno-Karabakh – that’s more than a third of the population of the enclave which Azerbaijan seized last week.

Azerbaijan says residents will be safe, but Armenia’s prime minister says "ethnic cleansing" has started.

Nagorno-Karabakh – recognised as part of Azerbaijan – had been run by ethnic Armenians for three decades.

The mountainous region in the South Caucasus has been supported by Armenia – but also by its ally, Russia.
