As of early Monday afternoon, more than 4,800 displaced people from Nagorno-Karabakh have arrived in Armenia, even as the Nagorno-Karabakh government urged people to temporarily refrain from traveling to Armenia, citing the need to first evacuate people injured in last week’s fighting. “All citizens who wish to move from Artsakh to Armenia will have that opportunity,” Stepanakert said.
