STEPANAKERT, MARCH 8, ARMENPRESS. Fog and low visibility prompted Artsakh authorities to cancel planned search operations for missing troops in southern regions which have gone under Azeri control after the war.

The State Service of Emergency Situations said they will resume the search operations tomorrow in case of favorable weather conditions.

So far, Artsakh rescuers retrieved the remains of 1490 servicemen and civilians since the 2020 November 10 ceasefire was signed.

“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
