In Artsakh, 755 individual economic operators (17.7% of the total) have suspended their activities due to the impossibility of working under blockade conditions, while the remaining operators are working at partial capacity or with state support. This was reported by the Artsakh Information Headquarters in its daily bulletin.
Due to the difficult economic situation created, at least 5,100 people have initially lost their jobs and source of income.
More than 26,800 tons of essential goods would have been delivered to Artsakh had it not been for the blockade, during which only a negligible portion of this was supplied by the International Committee of the Red Cross and the Russian peacekeeping forces.
