Armenia’s preliminary election results

Seat allocation is projected as follows:

Civil Contract – 64 seats,
Strong Armenia – 29,
Armenia Alliance – 12.

Prosperous Armenia failing to cross the electoral threshold.

BREAKING: @CAGovernor Gavin Newsom just called for a civil rights investigation into Dr. Oz for unfairly and unjustly targeting the Armenian community in Los Angeles — making unfounded allegations of illegal activity solely for political purposes.

[Governor Gavin Newsom @CAgovernor]

My office is filing a civil rights complaint seeking an investigation into Dr. Oz's baseless and racist allegations against Armenian Americans in California.

[Olesya Vartanyan @Olesya_vArt]

Statements by Armenia & Azerbaijan: Yerevan wants to discuss where to sign the peace deal, while Baku insists on constitutional changes first.

No shift in Az’s stance vs. more Arm concessions.

Key question: Is today’s announcement enough to move the Arm-Turkey process forward?

Ruben Vardanyan before Azerbaijani captivity and now.

On the way to cover Armenia's new "world's biggest Jesus statue," our reporter encountered the story of refugees from Nagorno-Karabakh living in its shadow.

When Bahruz Samadov was brought before the judge today, he appealed to the participants of the COP29 event and asked to keep his arrest on the agenda.

After months of anticipation finally some up-to-date footage from my neighborhood in Stepanakert: Azeris completely demolished it. The city is becoming unrecognizable.

[CIVILNET @CivilNetTV]

🚨BREAKING: Lawyers representing 2 officials who held senior human rights-related positions in Nagorno-Karabakh have formally asked the @IntlCrimCourt to investigate Azerbaijan’s leaders for crimes against humanity. @Artak_Beglaryan @Gegham_Artsakh

[Grigor Atanesian @atanessi]

An update on the fate of Ruben Vardanyan and former Karabakh leaders in Azerbaijan's detention. The piece also asks whether Armenia's official position on this issue differs from Pashinyan's, who seems to agree with Baku. @lilithiumm_ for @bbcrussian https://t.co/uscWdYsCGv

[Marut Vanyan @marutvanian]

My yard looks like this today in Stepanakert, Nagorno-Karabakh.

How would you feel if you saw your houseware being thrown out the windows as garbage?

[Freedom House @freedomhouse]

We are concerned by the arrest of freelance journalist Bahruz Samadov in Azerbaijan—the latest in the Aliyev regime's escalating attacks against independent media.

As we look to #COP29 this fall, we urge participating govts to strongly reiterate the need for the Aliyev regime to cease its assault on press freedom and immediately release all unjustly detained media workers.

[Thomas van Linge @ThomasVLinge]

#Azerbaijan 🇦🇿 BREAKING: political activist and writer Samad Shikhi (@Samed_shixi) has been arrested at Baku international airport.

His arrest follows the detainment of @bahruz_samad. The regime is targeting the last remaining critics of dictatorship.
