A special purpose medical unit from the Russian peacekeeping contingent continues to provide assistance to the local population both in Stepanakert and in other settlements of Nagorno-Karabakh, the Russia Defense Ministry said on Monday.
Russian peacekeepers from the special-purpose medical detachment (SMU) have created multifunctional medical teams to ensure the field work of military medics in remote localities of Nagorno-Karabakh. Over the past day, Russian military medics have provided medical assistance to 40 residents of Gishi village.
"In total, more than 800 residents of Nagorno-Karabakh received qualified medical care in the field hospital of the Ministry of Defence, including 100 children.
