Red Cross facilitates transfer of 13 Artsakh patients to Armenia

The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has facilitated the transfer of 13 severely ill patients from blockade-hit Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) to Armenia, the Artsakh Ministry of Health reported.

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

13 other patients, who have completed their treatment in Armenia, are expected to return home later on Saturday.

200 strongly ill patients are waiting for evacuation to Armenia, the health authorities said, adding Azerbaijan continues blocking supplies of medicine to Artsakh.

24 children are undergoing treatment in the Arevik Medical Center. 7 of them are in neonatal and intensive care.

73 adult patients, including 2 critically ill, are in the Republican Medical Center.

The people of Artsakh have been living under Azerbaijan's unlawful blockade for over seven months now.
