The conflict in Karabakh began in 1988, when the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Region announced its withdrawal from the Azerbaijan Soviet Socialist Republic. During the 1992-1994 armed conflict, Azerbaijan lost control of Nagorno-Karabakh and seven neighboring regions.
Another escalation of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict began on September 27. Baku and Yerevan accused each other of bombings. The parties agreed three times to cease fire, but the fighting continues to this day.
