PanARMENIAN.Net - Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov will hold talks on Thursday, March 24 with the President of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) Peter Maurer, who has arrived in Moscow after visiting Ukraine.

Maurer is in the Russian capital for talks on the Ukraine conflict.

According to a statement from the Russian Foreign Ministry, the agenda of the meeting envisages discussion of the key areas of the ICRC's work in the field of humanitarian response.

Beginning from March 8, over 100,000 residents in Karabakh were deprived of gas for over 10 days, and because the pipeline was damaged in territories currently under Baku's control, the Azerbaijani military would not allow the Armenian side to eliminate the problem. Gas supply resumed on March 19, only to be interrupted again on March 22.

The Azerbaijan armed forces have also been violating the ceasefire and using loudspeakers to spread panic among the population of Nagorno-Karabakh, attempting to force them to leave their homes.
