The occupation and this eternal war is bad for everyone, Palestinians and Israelis. Both people will benefit from an Israeli-Palestinian peace.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Charles "Chuck" F. Feeney, the founder of The Atlantic Philanthropies. Chuck's generosity and vision allow us to keep fighting for social and economic equity across the world.

Many thanks to @larisahova, @LaurenceBroers, @EldarMamedov4 and others who can't be named for their time and insights on this piece. "Urgent" doesn't cover the situation in Nagorno-Karabakh.
“Azerbaijan wants to maximally reduce the involvement of third parties, particularly Western… as a matter of principle.”
@sammartirosyan9 and @te_rowley report on the blocks to international organisations gaining access to Nagorno-Karabakh.

Behind terms like ethnic cleansing, refugees, and reintegration are human lives and faces. The tragedy in Nagorno Karabakh represents the human cost of war, aggression, and violence. Armenians in Nagorno Karabakh had names and faces; their lives are shattered, as are ours.
Armine Ishkanian retweeted
As thousands of forcibly displaced Armenians from Nagorno-Karabakh/Artsakh are now flooding into Armenia, I'm curious to know what the @UN office in Armenia with it's relevant agencies @UNHCR @UNICEF @UNOCHA @UNHumanRights is doing to alleviate the humanitarian catastrophe.

Following the ceasefire in Nagorno-Karabakh, full humanitarian access must be provided. Nagorno-Karabakh Armenians must be guaranteed safety and dignity. The UK should work with international partners, the EU, OSCE and UN to urge dialogue, respect for int law and human rights.

The sense of frustration with the Armenian government, with Russia, and with international institutions is intense. And likely to grow. eurasianet.org/despair-uneas…

We urge the international community to protect the civilian population in Nagorno-Karabakh, prevent crimes against humanity in the region, & hold the Azerbaijani govt accountable for the wellbeing of Armenians in the region. (2/2)

See our run down of Azerbaijan's major offensive on Nagorno-Karabakh this afternoon, with context
Azerbaijan has attacked Nagorno-Karabakh using artillery, drones & missiles. It had been openly discussing these plans for months, even issuing explicit threats to Armenia & Nagorno-Karabakh through various diplomatic channels and pro-government experts (video @Gegham_Artsakh)
Armine Ishkanian retweeted
After keeping Artsakh under siege for 9 months, starving the population, attacking sovereign Armenia, and now launching a large-scale offensive against Artsakh, it is clear that Baku's intent is to ethnically cleanse Arstakh of its indigenous people.
It has a been a great first week getting to know the new @AFSEE cohort 7 Fellows!
