Azerbaijan has said its military measures in Nagorno-Karabakh are continuing for a second day, having launched what it calls “anti-terror” operations in the enclave.

It says it will not stop until Karabakh’s ethnic Armenians surrender.

Tensions in the South Caucasus have been high for months around the breakaway region, recognised internationally as part of Azerbaijan.

Azerbaijan and Armenia last went to war three years ago.

    So. I guess “operation” is what we’re calling war these days? Disappointing to see even the BBC fall in line with the newspeak.

      But the war has been going on for 30 years. It’s just one operation within the ongoing war.
