KORNIDZOR, AUGUST 30, ARMENPRESS. Armenian authorities have opened a humanitarian headquarters in the village of Kornidzor near the entrance to the Lachin Corridor as a venue for foreign journalists and guests who are visiting the area as part of joining the humanitarian aid.

Vardan Sargsyan, a member of the Armenian government’s humanitarian crisis response group for Nagorno-Karabakh, told reporters that the French humanitarian convoy led by the Mayor of Paris has already arrived to the border area and the Russian peacekeepers are aware of the arrival.

Sargsyan said he hopes that the increase in international awareness will boost the process and it will be possible to deliver crucial supplies and mitigate the humanitarian crisis in Nagorno-Karabakh.

“Like we said, our steps are continuous, and the only goal is to deliver humanitarian aid to the people of Nagorno-Karabakh as soon as possible,” Sargsyan said, adding that the situation in Nagorno-Karabakh is deteriorating hour by hour.
