According to the latest data, 659 COVID-19 patients have recovered thus far, whereas 24 others have died.

MFA ON PHASED SETTLEMENT
Debates have raged after Russian FM Sergei Lavrov referred to the documents that suggest a phased settlement to the Karabakh conflict.
Earlier, FM Zohrab Mnatsakanyan noted that concessions are impossible at the cost of Artsakh security.
Now Armenian MFA spokesperson Anna Naghdalyan noted that ever since 2018, Armenia has not been holding talks based on a phased settlement.
“No settlement option that does not provide for the exercise of Artsakh's right to self-determination without the imposing of any restrictions and may endanger the security of the people of Artsakh is acceptable to the Armenian parties,” she said.
ARMENIAN MOD’S PHOTOS
Artsakh defense ministry has posted photos of the wreckage of the Azerbaijani UAV down by the defense army.
On April 21, the air defense forces stationed in the southern direction, noticing the Azerbaijani ORBITER unmanned aerial vehicle’s entry into the aerial space of Artsakh, downed the UAV with combat readiness and through literate operations.
Earlier, Artsakh MOD had reported frequent cases of flights of the opponent forces in areas adjacent to the contact line. UAVs have also been involved trying to penetrate the republic’s airspace for reconnaissance purposes.
ARMENIAN GRAVES FOUND IN TURKEY
Graves belonging to Armenians have been discovered in the Nazilli region of the Turkish Province of Aydin.
The employees of the Aydin Museum were called, and they confirmed that Armenians were buried there. The tombstones are believed to date back to the 17th century. They were moved to a safe place.
