Azerbaijani IDPs provided with houses
The State Committee of Azerbaijan Republic on the Refugees' and Internally Displaced Persons' held toss-up meeting on the accommodation of Azerbaijani IDPs, who live in poor conditions in “Energetics” dormitories in the Shuvelan settlement of Khazar district, in newly built houses in Masazir and Mehdiabad settlements with the participation of officials of Khazar district executive authority, deputies of heads of Executive Authorities of occupied districts and IDPs, AzVision.az reports.
151 IDP families were provided with houses after the toss-up meeting.

Note, one of the most tragic consequences of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is the terrible impact it has on the lives of ordinary people. The 1988-1993 conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia over the Azerbaijani province of Nagorno-Karabakh had devastating consequences for the populations of both countries.

While the conflict saw fewer casualties than other comparable wars, such as Bosnia, the internally displaced person (IDP) and refugee crisis was one of the most devastating in the world. The expulsion of civilians was one of the most awful consequences of the war, with Azerbaijanis being particularly affected.

700,000 IDPs were resettled in over 1600 communities, including tent camps, Finnish-type settlements, freight cars, public facilities, dormitories, dugouts, educational facilities, unfinished buildings, sanatoria, inns, vacation cottages, camping sites, and other temporary places of residence.
