Almost all Armenians flee Nagorno-Karabakh

We hear from people who have fled Nagorno-Karabakh.

Armenia says more than 100,000 people have fled the Nagorno-Karabakh region. It means that that almost the entire population of the ethnic Armenian enclave has left since Azerbaijan seized the region last week. Azerbaijan has said it wants to reintegrate the area and treat its residents as equals, but an Armenian spokesman said this was just a "lie". We bring together people who have fled and explain the developments.

President Zelensky has told EU foreign ministers meeting in Kyiv that victory for Ukraine depends on their continued support. We speak to our correspondent about concerns that the Western support may be wavering.

The French government says it will take action after reports of a “widespread” rise in bedbugs in Paris. We hear experiences by some of the residents.

We talk about the “Taylor Swift effect” after the US singer attended another NFL game, bringing a spending boost to American football.

Presenter: Anna Foster.
