HOMELA LOST 10 <strong>Persecution</strong> | FEBRUARY <strong>2024</strong>
ND WHAT LIFE LOOKS LIKE FOR THOUSANDS OF ETHNIC ARMENIAN CHRISTIANS AFTER BEING FORCED TO LEAVE HOME By ICC’s MENA Regional Team Until October 2023, more than 100,000 ethnic Armenian Christians lived in Artsakh, also known as Nagorno- Karabakh, a breakaway enclave internationally recognized as a part of Azerbaijan but populated by ethnic Armenians. Artsakh can be found in the southern Caucasus region and lies between Azerbaijan and Armenia, with the two nations fighting three wars over the past three decades over the enclave. The end of the Republic of Artsakh this year started with a nine-month blockade by Azerbaijan on the enclave, followed by an overwhelming lightning military operation by Azerbaijan. In the days following Azerbaijan’s takeover of the enclave, more than 100,000 Armenians, including over 40,000 children, fled Artsakh into Armenia. By October 1, Artsakh was emptied of Armenians. In the months following the war, the thousands of Armenian refugees have been trying to set up new lives in Armenia. Families have been settling in all parts of the country, living wherever they can find affordable housing. The refugees have to navigate a new system of schools for their children and develop trust with their new neighbors. Despite the coldness of winter fast approaching, many were in such a hurry as they fled that they brought meager belongings. Refugees struggled to stay warm and feed their families. And work proved difficult to find in Armenia. PERSECUTION.ORG 11
