Nagorno-Karabakh conflict: Azerbaijan takes control of disputed region – BBC News


Azerbaijan claims to have taken control of the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region, after a two-day military operation.

A delegation representing ethnic Armenians have met for peace talks in nearby Yevlakh, to negotiate the enclave’s integration into Azerbaijan, as part of a ceasefire agreement.

But, there are fears among Armenians that Azerbaijan taking control could lead to ethnic cleansing, and it has been reported that hundreds of ethnic Armenians were injured during the military operation.

Some 120,000 ethnic Armenians live in the South Caucasus enclave, recognised internationally as part of Azerbaijan.
