Thousands of Christians in Peril as Blockade Threatens Lives in Azerbaijan-Armenia Conflict

Religious liberty experts are warning that a blockade due to the ongoing conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia is endangering thousands of Christians who are stuck in a disputed land between the two countries.

The conflict dates back decades, although the latest battle began in September when Azerbaijan, a Muslim-dominated country, attacked its border neighbor to the west, Armenia, a predominantly Christian nation. Some 120,000 Armenian Christians live in a disputed land known as Nagorno-Karabakh, which lies in the western portion of Azerbaijan.
