YEREVAN, JULY 18, ARMENPRESS. 792 babies (406 boys and 386 girls) were born in hospitals across the Republic of Artsakh in 2022, the Ministry of Healthcare of the Republic of Artsakh said in a statement on July 18. 

In Q1 of 2021, 593 babies were born (270 boys and 323 girls), meaning the number of births grew by almost 200 in this year’s same period.

697 of the 792 babies were born in Stepanakert, the capital city. 66 births were recorded in Martakert and 29 in Martuni. 6 babies (3 boys and 3 girls) were born through IVF.

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
