Ukraine no-fly zone would mean participation in conflict: Putin

Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned Western powers against imposing a “no-fly zone” over Ukraine, saying any such attempt by another country would be seen as a step into the military conflict between Russian and Ukrainian forces. “Any movement in this direction will be considered by us as participation in an armed conflict by that country,” Putin said during a meeting with Aeroflot employees outside of Moscow on Saturday.

Mines, unexploded munitions riddle Nagorno-Karabakh region

Thirty years before the most recent conflict, Nagorno-Karabakh was mired in another war. It left a deadly legacy.
