Armenia is planning to send its citizens evacuated from Lebanon to
Nagorno Karabakh.

According to APA, so far 550 persons have been evacuated from Lebanon
and 54 from Israel to Armenia.

"Aleppo-Yerevan charter plans to take 51 more foreign nationals
today. These nationals applied to Armenian migration service to grant
them the status of "person in need of temporary refuge."

The migration service representative told journalists that the number
of people evacuated to Armenia form Lebanon increases day by day,
and the government faces problems to settle them.

"Most of these persons have no relatives in Armenia. The government
has discussed providing first aid to the evacuated persons. I don’t
rule out sending some of the evacuated Armenians to Nagorno Karabakh,"
the service representative said.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Tahir Taghizadeh told that such reports
released by Armenian media aim at provocation.

"The Foreign Ministry is taking serious control of this issue. If
there is any settlement in the occupied Azerbaijani lands, this issue
will be put to the discussion of the international community," the
spokesman underlined.
