As a result of the large explosion in the fuel warehouse in the Askeran region on September 25, 290 patients with various degrees of burns were admitted to “Republic Medical Center,” “Arevik” Medical Center, Ivanyan Medical Center, and the Russian Peacekeeper Medical Center.
Most of them were transferred to the “Republican Medical Center.” Unfortunately, the lives of 7 patients could not be saved, and they died in the hospital. Dozens of patients affected by the explosion are still in critical condition.
13 unrecognized bodies were transferred to the “Bureau of Forensic Examination.” Many people are considered missing because they were burned due to the explosion, and additional information about them needs to be verified.
The doctors and medical staff in Stepanakert are doing their best to save the lives of the wounded in these difficult and cramped conditions. We will provide additional information regarding the developments, the Nagorno-Karabakh Ministry of Justice informs.
