VOA News

   VOA NEWS - Heavy fighting continued Sunday between Armenian and
   Azerbaijan forces in Nagorno-Karabakh, a primarily ethnic Armenian
   region in Azerbaijan.

   Azerbaijani officials said Armenian forces had begun attacking
   Azerbaijan's second largest city, Ganja. Unverified videos on Twitter
   from government officials show damaged buildings.

   Azerbaijan's Defense Ministry rejected accusations that Azerbaijan's
   military had targeted civilians. Officials in Nagorno-Karabakh have
   said nearly 200 of their service personnel had been killed. Azerbaijan
   confirmed the deaths of at least 24 civilians.
