YEREVAN, DECEMBER 23, ARMENPRESS. According to the calculations of the Office of Ombudsman of Artsakh, up to 40,000 residents of Artsakh have been left without shelters due to the recent war unleashed by Azerbaijan, Ombudsman Artak Beglaryan said at a press conference today.

“According to our calculations, up to 40,000 people have been left without shelters only due to the military operations and the occupation of territories due to the political agreement. Most of these people have already returned to Artsakh”, he said.

Beglaryan stated that the issue of temporary shelters should be solved for these people at first.

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
