This is the best summary I could come up with:


Karabakh's human rights ombudsman, Gegham Stepanyan, said on social media that the streets of the capital Khankendi, known as Stepanakert by Armenians were "filled with displaced people, hungry, scared, and in uncertainty".

It described the talks as "constructive and positive", but the country's representative also said it was difficult to expect all problems between Azerbaijan and Karabakh Armenians to be resolved in one session, Russia's Ria news agency reported.

The breakaway region in the South Caucasus is internationally recognised as part of Azerbaijan and the government in Baku has made clear it intends to take full control of it.

Azerbaijan's president, Ilham Aliyev, hailed the ceasefire agreement as a major victory, declaring that his country had restored its sovereignty over the territory for the first time in decades.

An adviser to the Karabakh authorities, Davit Babayan, told Reuters his people could not be left to die and that security guarantees were needed before local forces would hand over their weapons.

Weakened by the months-long blockade and without significant international support, Karabakh's forces saw Azerbaijan make quick territorial gains after it launched its military operation on Tuesday.
