2016 April War
A year after the war in Nagorno-Karabakh’s frontline village of Talish
On 2 April 2016, the Four-Day War began, and Azerbaijani troops moved into the village of Talish in Nagorno-Karabakh. One year on, only a couple of dozen men remain in Talish — their wives and children waiting to return and rebuild their lives. More than a year after the Four-Day War, the Khalapyans’ home lies empty; the surviving members of the family have left Talish. The Khalapyans’ house lies at the edge of the village, and was the first that Azerbaijani soldiers entered. Pic
