Dadivank (Armenian: Դադիվանք),also Khutavank (Armenian: Խութավանք, lit. 'monastery on the hill'), is an Armenian monastery in the Shahumian Region of the Republic of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh Republic). It was built between the 9th and 13th centuries.

If you read only one piece on the #Karabakh conflict and Armenia and Azerbaijan do read this. A powerful blast of humanity and a cry from the heart, as an Azerbaijani IDP calls for the cycle of ethnic cleansing to stop. https://t.co/bjrghzda05

How about Artsakh or Armenia @elonmusk ?

As members of the global humanitarian and human rights community we call for Ruben Vardanyan's immediate release.

[Noubar Afeyan @NoubarAfeyan]

As Elie Wiesel said “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.” I’m proud to take sides -alongside so many humanitarian heroes- in speaking out against the unjust arrest of @RubenVardanyan_

[Eric Esrailian @esrailian]

The ethnic cleansing of Armenians by Azerbaijan. Starvation, murder, attacks on civilians, destruction of religious structures & forced migration under fear of death. During the Armenian Genocide, the perpetrators also said, “they left,” when asked about why Armenians were no

[Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention @LemkinInstitute]

The @LemkinInstitute is deeply concerned about the breaking news of the arrest and detention of former Artsakh State Minister @RubenVardanyan_ by #Azerbaijan’s State Border Service.

Vardanyan, an outspoken advocate for Artsakh’s right to self-determination, is particularly hated by Azerbaijan. His detention poses a very high risk of torture and extrajudicial execution or a show trial. He and other current and former members of the Artsakh government and self-defense army have been branded as “separatists” and “terrorists,” categories that states use to justify illegal detention and murder.

Concern for the life and safety of Vardanyan is especially warranted given the treatment that Armenian POWs have received in Azerbaijani captivity since 2020. They have been tortured, humiliated, murdered, disappeared, and subjected to show trials. This is well documented.

Russia and the United States as well as all other world leaders must demand Vardanyan’s safe passage out of Azerbaijan and must ensure that other members of the Artsakh government, as well as members of of the Artsakh Defense Army, are also allowed to leave. We remind the world that the detention, killing, and disappearance of elites is a common act of #genocide. @KremlinRussia_E @POTUS @SamanthaJPower @SecBlinken @WairimuANderitu @UNOSAPG @antonioguterres @EmmanuelMacron

[Anders Fogh Rasmussen @AndersFoghR]

The images of refugees fleeing Nagorno-Karabakh are a failure of the international community.

For months warnings of ethnic cleansing were ignored. Now it has happened.

The world must stand with democratic Armenia and give all the humanitarian support needed.

Do not turn away from this still-unfolding crisis. Preventing #Genocide is a global responsibility.

[Henrikh Mkhitaryan @HenrikhMkh]

Thank you @CNN for highlighting the tragedy that is currently unfolding in #NagornoKarabakh .

People are experiencing a #Genocide today in 2023 and desperately need our help.

I have spent a day carefully reading every piece of trusted information coming from NK. Went back and forth between crying and being sick in the stomach. It will be, if not already is, another Bucha or Srebrenica.

[Tatevik Hayrapetyan @TatevikHayrape1]

The entire Armenian population of Nagorno-Karabakh is currently being forcibly deported. Due to the lack of international presence, Azerbaijani reps force them to claim that they are leaving voluntarily. They're leaving because Aliyev has left them with no other option to survive

[Xebat Omerî @XebatOmeri]

@lio___m we recognize this as Kurd. Turks have been doing such things to Kurdish people for 40 years.

[Tom Catena @CatenaTom]

Disbelief, anger, and heartbreak. Ruben Vardanyan, a man of compassion and selflessness, has been a rock of support for the people of Artsakh, and what has happened is beyond comprehension.

My prayers are with Ruben and his family.

[Noubar Afeyan @NoubarAfeyan]

Reports that my long-time collaborator and friend, @Auroraprize_ co-founder Ruben Vardanyan, has been arrested and detained by Azeri forces while trying to leave his homeland in #artsakh #NagornoKarabakh are cause for grave concern... (1/3)

[Henrikh Mkhitaryan @HenrikhMkh]

After a ten months long blockade, on September 19th Azerbaijan’s military launched a brutal shelling of Nagorno Karabakh.

My heart breaks as I learn about the stories of trauma, loss, and severe violations of human rights of thousands of Armenian families who are being forcibly displaced from Nagorno Karabakh and flee for Armenia in a mass exodus.

The situation that people in Nagorno-Karabakh are suffering right now, brings memories from History’s darkest hours. We often look back to those dark pages of indiscriminate killings, ethnic cleansing and concentration camps with remorse, and regret that no one did enough to stop it. We cannot bring back the victims from those past atrocities, but we are still in time to prevent genocide from unfolding in the Nagorno-Karabakh.

In the midst of this horror, we need immediate mobilization of emergency humanitarian aid through the Lachine Corridor and airlift and the deployment of international monitoring missions to put a stop to these crimes against humanity.

It is now urgent for international leaders to stand up against ethnic cleansing and use all possible political tools to put an end to military actions in the region.

Children have the right to live in peace in their homeland.
