Women and children read books in a bombshelter as they seek refuge from shelling in Stepanakert, the self-proclaimed Republic of Nagorno-Karabakh, Azerbaijan, Thursday, Oct. 1, 2020. Clashes broke out Sunday in Nagorno-Karabakh, a region within Azerbaijan that has been controlled by ethnic Armenian forces backed by the Armenian government since the end of a separatist war a quarter-century ago. Fighting has continued unchecked since then, killing dozens and leaving scores wounded. Armenian and Azerbaijani forces blame each other for continuing attacks. (AP Photo/Karen Mirzoyan)
