The bodies of two residents of Azerbaijan have been repatriated today
from Armenia to Nakhchivan under the auspices of the International
Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC).

According to a release issued by ICRC, the operation took place on the
road between the Armenian village of Eraskhavan and the Azerbaijani
village of Sadarak.

`Acting as a neutral intermediary, at the request of all parties and
in full cooperation with them, the ICRC facilitated the repatriation.
Since 1992, the organization has repeatedly helped authorities arrange
the repatriation of human remains. The ICRC will support any similar
operation in the future if the need arises,’ reads the statement.
