Almost all ethnic Armenians have left Nagorno-Karabakh

Armenian government says 100,000 people have fled since Azerbaijan took control of breakaway region

Almost all ethnic Armenians have left Nagorno-Karabakh since Azerbaijan attacked and ordered the breakaway region's militants to disarm, the Armenian government said on Saturday.

Nazeli Baghdasaryan, the press secretary to Armenia's prime minister, Nikol Pashinyan, said 100,417 people had arrived in Armenia from Nagorno-Karabakh, which had a population of about 120,000 before Azerbaijan reclaimed the region in a offensive last week.
