Details: The agency advises citizens of Ukraine “to refrain from visiting this region for now, and also to avoid crowded places in the cities of Armenia, in particular Yerevan.”
In case of emergency, Ukrainians can contact the 24-hour hotline of the Ukrainian Embassy in Armenia (+374 7710 0273) or the hotline of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry (+38 044 238 1588).
As you know, September 19 Azerbaijan announced the beginning of “local anti-terrorist measures” in unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh, which is considered an internationally recognized part of Azerbaijan.
The Armenian Foreign Ministry called the actions of Baku large-scale aggression against the people of Nagorno-Karabakh “with the aim of completing the policy of ethnic cleansing.”
By the evening protests outside the Armenian government building in connection with Baku’s “anti-terrorist operation” against Karabakh escalated into clashes. The protest also gathered under the Russian embassy – Armenians demand Moscow to intervene in the situation.
