Death Toll in Nagorno-Karabakh Fighting Mounts as New Ceasefire Falls Apart
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

The United Nations is calling on Armenia and Azerbaijan to respect a
Russian-brokered ceasefire, after both sides accused each other of
violating the truce with indiscriminate attacks that killed civilians.
U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres pointed to an attack Saturday on
Azerbaijan's second-largest city, Ganja, which killed 13 people,
including children. Armenia said Azeri forces fired missiles on
civilians in Nagorno-Karabakh's capital city.
