The evacuation of patients from Azerbaijan's breakaway region of Nagorno-Karabakh to Armenia resumed Friday, after Baku shut the road linking the enclave to its neighbour, the Red Cross said.

"Evacuation of patients by the Red Cross from Karabakh to hospitals in Armenia resumed today (Friday)," the Red Cross's Armenian branch spokeswoman Zara Amatuni told AFP, adding that "11 patients in serious condition were transported through the Lachin Corridor" which Baku shut Tuesday, sparking concerns over a humanitarian crisis in the region.

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
