Residents in Nagorno-Karabakh assessed damage to their properties on Saturday as Armenia and Azerbaijan announced a new attempt to establish a cease-fire in their conflict in the disputed region.
The new agreement, which starts from midnight, was announced following Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov's calls with his counterparts from the two nations, in which he strongly urged them to abide by the Moscow deal.
The move comes a week after a Russia-brokered truce frayed immediately after it took force.
On Saturday, several properties were seen destroyed in Stepanakert, the main city in disputed Nagorno-Karabakh.
The region lies within Azerbaijan but has been under the control of ethnic Armenian forces backed by Armenia since a war there ended in 1994.
The latest fighting that began on September 27 has involved heavy artillery, rockets and drones, killing hundreds in the largest escalation of hostilities between the South Caucasus neighbors in more than a quarter-century.
