BREAKING
Grossi: [Interim Syrian President] al-Sharaa gave us access to Syria, and we are now able to make many revelations. My visit there was highly important.
Grossi: What we are doing in Syria is extremely important. The issue was suspended for the longest time and we were unable to carry out our duties there.
Grossi: We are not waiting for what may happen in the indirect negotiations, and we are aware that Iran’s stance on them will greatly impact other matters.
Grossi: Enrichment in Iran is not prohibited, but a country accumulating it and approaching weapons-grade levels cannot be overlooked.
Grossi: The situation in Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine, is fragile, and the ongoing deterioration of infrastructure continues to affect nuclear safety.
Grossi: We will have talks about the report, and we are talking about facts that do not need interpretation.
Grossi: What I cannot say is that there is a confirmed lack of clear answers from Iran, but there are new elements that did not exist in 2015.
IAEA director-general Rafael Grossi: We found some issues, but there is no conclusive evidence to suggest the existence of an unnatural nuclear program.
Iranian Foreign Ministry: Iran has always demonstrated goodwill, but the International Atomic Energy Agency is under pressure from the E3 and other countries.
Iranian Foreign Ministry: We will soon present our proposal to the other party through Oman, and the United States should seize this opportunity.

Almost all of the Armenian people living in Nagorno-Karabakh have been moved to Armenia, according to European Commissioner for Crisis Management Janez Lenarcic, who is visiting the country.

"Almost the entire Armenian population of Nagorno-Karabakh has now fled to Armenia," Lenarcic wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Earlier in the day, the commissioner reached Yerevan, the capital of Armenia, with the aim of organizing the EU's aid efforts in response to the large-scale displacement of people from Nagorno-Karabakh. He is scheduled to hold meetings with high-ranking Armenian authorities, collaborate with local EU humanitarian collaborators, and tour shelters accommodating those who have been displaced from Nagorno-Karabakh.

"The visit comes as a plane carrying EU emergency supplies is due to arrive in Yerevan," the European Commission said in a statement.

The aircraft is set to transport hygiene kits, kitchen sets, blankets, solar-powered LED lights, and solar flashlights, all sourced from the EU's humanitarian reserves, as per the statement.

Lenarcic will further address the assistance coordinated via the EU Civil Protection Mechanism. This encompasses shelter materials, food, and medical provisions provided by Austria, Germany, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Romania, and Sweden. Medical aid contributions will also be discussed, which have been extended by Belgium, Bulgaria, France, Italy, Luxembourg, Spain, and Sweden.

"A team of EU humanitarian experts has been deployed to Armenia where they are now coordinating with humanitarian partners to assess the developing needs and to ensure a rapid response to the crisis," the Commission added.

In sum, the estimated combined worth of EU humanitarian assistance provided in response to the Nagorno-Karabakh crisis surpasses 10 million euros (equivalent to $10.5 million).

This significant exodus of Nagorno-Karabakh's predominantly Armenian population began after Azerbaijan declared the successful conclusion of its so-called "anti-terrorist" operation initiated against the breakaway region on September 19.

Since then, more than 100,400 of the 120,000 Nagorno-Karabakh residents have moved to Armenia, the Armenian cabinet says.

In the midst of the population displacement, a substantial explosion occurred at a gas station close to the capital of Nagorno-Karabakh, Stepanakert, on September 25th. The blast resulted in the tragic loss of at least 125 lives and inflicted severe injuries on numerous individuals. 

On Thursday, members of the European Parliament accused Azerbaijan of ethnic cleansing against ethnic Armenians: calling on the European Parliament to impose sanctions.

The European Parliament stated that it considers the "current situation [in Nagorno Karabkh] to amount to ethnic cleansing," adding that it "strongly condemns the threats and violence perpetrated by Azerbaijani forces."
