ICRC helps transfer more seriously ill patients from Artsakh to Armenia

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has facilitated the transfer of three more severely ill patients from Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) to Armenia amid the ongoing Azerbaijani blockade, the Artsakh Ministry of Health reported.

The patients were transported to specialized medical centers in Armenia on Tuesday, the ministry said in a statement.

Planned surgeries remain suspended in Artsakh’s hospitals due to the blockade of the only road connecting Artsakh to Armenia, known as the Lachin corridor, which started back on 12 December.

7 children are in neonatal and intensive care in the Arevik Medical Center.

12 patients, including 5 critically ill, remain in the intensive care unit of the Republican Medical Center.

The Red Cross has helped transfer a total of 58 patients from Artsakh to Armenia for urgent treatment since the start of the blockade.
