Russia says it has also delivered aid, but it is not known how much.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Nagorno-Karabakh - a mountainous region in the South Caucasus - is recognised internationally as part of Azerbaijan but large areas of it have been controlled by ethnic Armenians for three decades.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">On Saturday, Armenia urged the UN to send a mission to monitor the rights of ethnic Armenians in Nagorno-Karabakh, arguing that their very existence was now under threat.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Azerbaijan denies the accusation, saying it wants to reintegrate the region's ethnic Armenian residents as equal citizens of the country.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">At least 200 ethnic Armenians died, including 10 civilians, as Azerbaijan's army swept into the enclave earlier this week.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Now, displaced from villages and separated from relatives, several thousand people were sleeping in tents or the open air near the airport in the main city Stepanakert, known as Khankendi by Azerbaijan, Karabakh officials said.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The airport is also near a base for Russian peacekeepers, five of whom were killed during the fighting.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">On Saturday Azerbaijan said it was working with Russian peacekeepers in Nagorno-Karabakh to disarm ethnic Armenian forces - one of its key demands in return for a ceasefire.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">In the courtyard of a military HQ in Susa, near the regional capital, Azeri military officials proudly laid out weapons given up by separatists.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The haul included what appeared to be a T-72 tank, several BMP-2 armoured personnel carriers, machine guns, assault rifles, body armour and mines. The BBC estimates that the area filled was equivalent to half a football field.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Russia's defence ministry said six armoured vehicles, more than 800 guns and about 5,000 units of ammunition had been handed over so far.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">It is unclear what will happen to the 120,000 ethnic Armenians in Nagorno-Karabakh. Azerbaijan says it wants to reintegrate the region and an Azerbaijani official told the BBC that "no one is kicking anyone out".</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">"If we didn't care about civilians, women and children, we would have simply entered Khankendi," he added.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another official said that the military had prepared camps for refugees outside of Karabakh that were "ready to accept civilians" - but there is much mistrust on both sides and many ethnic Armenians may not be willing to move.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Azerbaijan has also told the UN that it will treat Karabakh Armenians as "equal citizens". But their destiny is in Azeri hands now.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">It says it envisages an amnesty for those Karabakh fighters who hand over their weapons and they can leave for Armenia if they choose.
