Artsakh State Minister: Armenian authorities` inaction has left a  family affected by the fuel depot explosion near Stepanakert   homeless

ArmInfo. The Armenian authorities' ignorance of the status of the families of those killed  in the explosion at a fuel depot near Stepanakert in 2023 has already resulted in a single mother with two minors being left homeless. Artsakh State Minister Nzhdeh Iskandaryan issued this warning on his Facebook page.

"A single mother with her two minors has been unable to pay rent for  two months and is now homeless.  Her work barely covers her basic  nutritional needs," Iskandaryan clarified. He expressed his  conviction that this is a direct consequence of the inaction of the  Armenian authorities. "All responsibility for the current situation  lies with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and the current  authorities,"  the Artsakh State Minister wrote. He also called on  anyone who can support this family, and anyone else in a similar  difficult situation, to contact him.

Earlier, Iskandaryan reported that thousands of Artsakh families have  found themselves in dire straits, deprived of a stable income, social  protection, and a sense of security for their future due to the  termination of support programs by the Armenian government. He noted  that the majority of Artsakh residents are forced to work only to pay  rent, while issues of food, medical care, and basic needs remain  unmet.
