Massive Exodus: Over 100,000 Refugees Flee Nagorno-Karabakh Conflict

More than 100,000 people have fled Nagorno-Karabakh since Azerbaijan attacked and ordered the breakaway region's fighter groups to disarm. The exodus has nearly emptied the region, with only a fraction of the population remaining. The departure of over 80% of Nagorno-Karabakh's population raises questions about Azerbaijan's plans for the enclave. Armenia has asked the European Union for assistance in dealing with the influx of refugees. Armenia alleges that the exodus amounts to ethnic cleansing, while Azerbaijan denies this and claims the migration is voluntary.
