Fighting Between Christian Armenia and Azerbaijan Threatens to Spark Regional War

On September 27th, war broke out between the nations of Armenia and Azerbaijan. The conflict re-ignited a decades-old dispute over a region called Nagorno-Karabakh. Azerbaijan claims the area but most of those who live there are Armenian. While this is a small conflict now, some warn it could get bigger.

Now in its second week, the conflict has seen thousands of refugees flee and others seek shelter inside the war zone.

"Bombing ...buildings and houses are destroyed. We are so afraid of it. How can one stand it? How long will it last?” said one resident of Nagorno-Karabakh's capital of Stepanakert.
