Wounded ethnic Armenian man named Sasha, 84 years-old, from Stepanakert, Nagorno-Karabakh is helped by volunteers walk as he arrives in Armenia's Goris in Syunik region, Armenia, on Wednesday, Sept. 27, 2023. Some 42,500 people, or about 35% of Nagorno-Karabakh's ethnic Armenian population, has left for neighboring Armenia as of Wednesday morning, according to Armenian authorities.
