News spread in the media that the road south of Karahunj was also closed off, as a result of which the entire route from Goris to Vorotan and Shurnukh is closed. Aravot Daily tried to confirm what is happening in Karahunj right now. “They did not close the route from Goris to Karahunj, but the route to the gardens in Karahunj’s administrative territory, which are now under Azerbaijani control as a result of delimitation,” one of the Karahunj village residents told Aravot Daily.
They did not wish to introduce themselves. According to them, that territory is very far from the village’s living settlements. Azerbaijanis closed off the Chayzam portion of the Yerevan-Goris route as of Wednesday, and the Vorotan route on Thursday. Negotiations are taking place, but they are currently unsuccessful. According to the deputy governor of the Syunik province, Narek Babayan, Kapan is not closed off from the outside world. Alternative routes are operating.
