Some 42,500 ethnic Armenians have now fled Nagorno-Karabakh - that’s more than a third of the population of the enclave which Azerbaijan seized last week.

Azerbaijan says residents will be safe, but Armenia's prime minister says "ethnic cleansing" has started.

Nagorno-Karabakh - recognised as part of Azerbaijan - had been run by ethnic Armenians for three decades.

The mountainous region in the South Caucasus has been supported by Armenia - but also by its ally, Russia.
