Azerbaijan again disrupts gas supply to Artsakh

Azerbaijan has again cut off the natural gas supply to Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh), the local gas operator ArtsakhGas reported.

The only pipeline supplying gas from Armenia to Artsakh which passes through Azerbaijani-held territory was blocked by Baku on Friday, it said in a statement, urging people to strictly follow safety rules.

Azerbaijan has repeatedly disrupted the gas supply to Artsakh since December 12, when large groups of Azerbaijanis posing as eco-activists blocked of the Lachin Corridor, the sole road connecting Artsakh to Armenia and the outside world.
