Friday, 02 October 2020_Dozens have been reported killed and hundreds wounded as Azerbaijan and Armenia continue fighting in the disputed South Caucasus region of Nagorno-Karabakh, despite international calls for ending the ongoing hostilities.
Six days after a decades-long territorial dispute prompted the heaviest fighting between Azerbaijan’s military and Armenian-backed forces in years, Baku says it will keep fighting until Armenian forces “fully” withdraw from Nagorno-Karabakh.
The region, internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan, has been under Armenian control since the early 1990s.
