The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) reports that there are  approximately 300 people still missing from the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict escalation in 2020.

It is noted that since a ceasefire agreement was signed in November  2020, the remains of more than 1,700 people have been found and the  process started to identify and return them to their families. The International Committee of the Red Cross, together with Russian peacekeepers, has facilitated around 360 operations to find human  remains, supporting local recovery teams as they work. “Nothing can  bring their loved ones back but giving these hundreds of families a  chance to know what happened is incredibly important. Conditions are always extremely dangerous because the terrain is littered with mines and unexploded ordnances, and on top of that, in winter visibility  drops to almost zero,” said Christopher Poole, who leads ICRC’s  regional specialists in landmines, explosive remnants of war,  stockpiles and small arms.
