  Three more seriously ill patients transferred from Karabakh to Armenia January 12, 2023 - 15:51 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Three more seriously ill people in need of emergency medical care were transported from Nagono Karabakh (Artsakh) to Armenia with the help of the International Committee of the Red Cross, said Zara Amatuni, head of communication and prevention programs at the Armenian office of the ICRC. According to a report from Sputnik Armenia, the patients were accompanied by two other civilians and a nurse. Amatuni noted that since December 12, 21 patients have been transferred from Artsakh to Armenia. Since December 12, the sole road connecting Nagorno Karabakh to Armenia - the Lachin Corridor - has been blocked by self-described Azerbaijani environmentalists. Karabakh residents have reported food and fuel shortages, while hospital patients don't have access to essential medicines, with only a handful allowed transfer to facilities in Armenia proper.
