YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 28, ARMENPRESS. The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) facilitated the transfer of eight severely ill patients from blockaded Nagorno Karabakh to Armenia for treatment, the healthcare ministry of Nagorno Karabakh said in a statement.

The patients required urgent surgeries.

Planned surgeries are still on hold across Nagorno Karabakh due to the blockade.

7 patients are in intensive care at the Republican Medical Center. Three of them are in critical condition.

So far the Red Cross facilitated the transfer of 135 patients from Artsakh to Armenia.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
