The refugee emergency in Armenia is escalating as tens of thousands have poured into the country from the Karabakh region in less than a week.

She told UN News’s Dominika Tomaszewska-Mortimer about the vulnerable people arriving in registration centres, massive accommodation and humanitarian needs, and how UN agencies and partners are working with the Armenian Government to ramp up support.
