Since December 12, 2022, Azerbaijan has blocked the Goris-Stepanakert road — the only route connecting Artsakh to Armenia and the outside world. Overnight, 120,000 people were cut off from food, medicine, and essential supplies. No land passage. No air corridor. Total isolation.
The blockade has triggered a deepening humanitarian catastrophe, threatening the lives, safety, and fundamental rights of an entire population — with children bearing the heaviest burden.
On August 10th, I was able to witness what Teach For Armenia has done for the students all over Armenia by visiting Shenavan Basic School in the mountains of Lori.

The day the only road to Artsakh was sealed
The continuation of the blockade has inevitably led to a humanitarian crisis — new human losses, the threat of renewed war, and escalating tension across the region.
