Azerbaijan said its troops killed dozens of Armenians in clashes near the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh in the past two weeks as the International Crisis Group warned of an “unprecedented” escalation of tensions.

“Armenian losses ran into dozens,” Vaqif Dargahli, a spokesman for the Ministry of Defense, said by phone today from Baku, the capital. Two Azeris were also killed, he said.
