Caves offer refuge for Armenian border villagers living in fear of Azerbaijani attack

Residents in the village of Khnatsakh, on the border of Armenia and Azerbaijan, live in fear of an invasion by Azerbaijani troops.

Should an attack occur, a network of caves in the surrounding hills is ready to act as a shelter, as they did in 2020.

Until the 2020 war, the village was controlled by Armenia as a "buffer" around breakaway Karabakh.

Since Azerbaijan's victory in 2020, Yerevan pulled back and Khnatsakh found itself surrounded by military outposts.
