- A United Nations mission has arrived in Nagorno-Karabakh, Azerbaijan.
- Almost the entire ethnic-Armenian population fled since Baku recaptured the breakaway enclave.
- It marks the first time in about 30 years that the international body has gained access to the region.
- Armenian separatists, who had controlled the region for three decades, agreed to disarm, dissolve their government and reintegrate with Baku.
- The separatist Armenians have claimed part of Karabakh – internationally recognised as Azerbaijani territory – as their ancestral homeland.
- Armenia, a country of 2.8 million, faces a major challenge housing the sudden influx of refugees.
