NEAR KORNIDZOR, Armenia (Reuters) - Russian peacekeepers will escort the homeless families of Nagorno-Karabakh Armenians to Armenia if they want, the ethnic Armenian authorities of the breakaway region said on Sunday.
"We inform you that families who have become homeless as a result of recent military operations and who have expressed desire to leave the republic will be carried out by Russian peacekeepers," the authorities said in a statement posted on Facebook.
"The government will soon provide information about the transfer of other population groups."
