Exodus from Artsakh

AGBU wasted no time to gear up for the monumental challenge at hand, given its deep experience on the frontlines of humanitarian relief, especially those of more recent memory—from the Syrian Armenian refugee crisis, the Covid-19 pandemic, the explosion at the Port of Beirut, the 2020 Artsakh War, and now the exodus of the Armenians from Artsakh.

One of the Lucky Ones

You see, because we are a small community and we literally know everyone, when we learn that someone’s brother, sister, or relative was killed, we die with each piece of sad news. And especially now, we are afraid to ask anyone, ‘How are you?’ because in each family there is a tragedy.
