YEREVAN, MAY 11, ARMENPRESS. Work is underway both with the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and all international platforms to resume transfers of patients from Nagorno Karabakh/Artsakh to Armenia amid the blockade of the Lachin Corridor by Azerbaijan, Healthcare Minister Anahit Avanesyan told reporters on May 11.

The ICRC halted patient transfers when Azerbaijan illegally installed a checkpoint.

Doctors from Armenia maintain contact with their colleagues in Nagorno Karabakh for providing required treatment to patients in need.
