"Hayk's Arrow" Armenian Strategic CenterA sourced record of diplomacy, agreements, borders, connectivity and humanitarian measures.
Counts cover this curated register. Each record has one primary topic and is counted once in the main chart. Multiple reports or translations of the same meeting do not create extra events. Gaps do not establish inactivity. Counts measure recorded developments, not the success of the peace process.
Official statements establish what the issuing body recorded or announced. They do not by themselves prove that every commitment was fulfilled. Event dates drive charts; later publication dates are retained separately. The register is selective and will need further additions.

Azerbaijan transferred four Armenian prisoners from Nagorno-Karabakh to Armenia on 14 January 2026.
France’s 19 January official statement expressly confirms the 14 January transfer. The event date differs from publication; the record does not imply release of all detainees.

ICRC representatives from Geneva visited conflict-related detainees in Azerbaijan in December 2025.
The ICRC FAQ updated 30 April 2026 states the month only. It calls this the latest visit at that update; no exact day or later visit is inferred.

Following an Azerbaijani government decision, the ICRC ended its permanent physical presence in the country on 3 September 2025.
The 2 September announcement gives the closure date; the subsequently updated ICRC FAQ confirms closure. Continuing dialogue is distinct from a permanent delegation.

The ICRC submitted its latest formal missing-persons list to Azerbaijani authorities and other parties in April 2024.
The ICRC’s 8 July 2025 retrospective identifies the month, not a day. List submission is not a finding that all missing persons were located.

The parties carried out the detainee releases announced on 7 December: 32 Armenian servicemen and two Azerbaijani servicemen.
The EU Council’s institutional report explicitly dates implementation to 13 December. This record separates actual release from the earlier commitment.
Link to recordDetainees
The parties announced releases of 32 Armenian and two Azerbaijani servicemen, alongside reciprocal COP29-related support.
The joint announcement promised confidence-building steps and continued talks. It records the commitment on 7 December, not execution of the exchange that day.
Link to recordDisplacement
Armenia reported 98,625 people forcibly displaced from Nagorno-Karabakh had arrived by 20:00 on 29 September.
This is a time-specific government snapshot, not the final displacement total. The dashboard counts this as one humanitarian record; the number of people is not added to event totals.

Nearly 70 metric tonnes of supplies crossed Lachin; the ICRC also evacuated 17 people wounded in the fighting.
The ICRC’s same-day operational release confirms the delivery and evacuation. These are one reported operation; people and cargo tonnage do not inflate event counts.
Link to recordHumanitarian access
The ICRC brought wheat flour and essential medical supplies via the Lachin Corridor and Aghdam road after humanitarian consultations.
This is one operational delivery event using two routes, not two events or proof that unrestricted commercial access had resumed.
Link to recordHumanitarian access
The ICRC said it could not bring humanitarian assistance through either Lachin or Aghdam, while limited medical evacuations continued.
This dates the ICRC’s operational-access report, not the onset of all restrictions. Relief deliveries and patient evacuations are distinguished.

The EU dates a near-total blockage to 15 June.
The EU’s 23 June statement distinguishes this tightening from the earlier restrictions. It warns of an immediate threat to livelihoods and a potential humanitarian crisis. Later medical transfers must not be confused with restored unrestricted cargo access.

Azerbaijan’s UN correspondence dates the repatriation to 4 October.
The 27 October letter, circulated on 28 October, explicitly records seventeen servicemen’s return. The transfer belongs in October, not on the letter’s later date; assertions about detention conditions remain Azerbaijan’s account.

Azerbaijan reports a further handover facilitated by the ICRC.
The commission dates the 95-person batch to 20 September, separately from the 32 bodies reported on 17 September. This is a repatriation count, not a complete or independently verified casualty total.

Azerbaijan records a post-fighting transfer to Armenia.
The commission dates this batch to 17 September after the September border hostilities. Its separate claims concerning cause of the fighting and the bodies’ condition are not adopted as independently established facts.

Azerbaijan records five named servicemen’s handover at the interstate border.
The commission’s 8 September statement attributes the release to understandings following the 31 August Brussels meeting. The event date is the handover, not the earlier leaders’ meeting.
Link to recordDetainees
Eight Armenians were released following the France–EU-facilitated virtual meeting.
The OSCE Permanent Council journal explicitly dates the release to 7 February, distinct from the 4 February leaders’ meeting. Azerbaijan’s commission confirms the same day. Claims of a reciprocal missing-persons condition are not treated as an agreed obligation.

Azerbaijan dates the five-person military batch to 29 December.
The commission identifies five servicemen and Hungarian mediation. A separate same-day statement records another civilian’s return; that individual is not silently added to this military batch. Armenia later acknowledged Hungary’s role in returning five prisoners.
Detainees
Ten Armenian detainees were released after the Brussels leaders’ meeting.
The EU’s IHL report explicitly dates this release and the EU-facilitated transfer to Yerevan to 19 December. It is separate from the ten released on 4 December, welcomed at the 14 December meeting.

Azerbaijan records ten servicemen’s handover and receipt of further Armenian mine maps.
The 4 December commission statement dates the release to that day and thanks Russia’s Defence Ministry for map mediation. Charles Michel welcomed the ten-person release before the separate 19 December batch.

Azerbaijan records the return of a wounded serviceman and a civilian.
The commission dates both handovers to 26 November. It identifies one as captured during the 16 November fighting and the other as a civilian who had lost his way. The commission’s account of capture is attributed.

Armenia reported the return of five people to the ICJ.
The ICJ’s published record reproduces Armenia’s 22 October letter dating this release to 19 October. This records the transfer reported to the Court, not a separate judgment establishing the detainees’ criminal status.

A further 15 Armenians were released alongside the handover of minefield maps for the Fuzuli and Zangilan districts.
PACE’s institutional report records 3 July as the release and map-transfer date. This is separate from the 12 June exchange.
Link to recordDetainees
Azerbaijan released 15 Armenian detainees and Armenia handed over minefield maps in a confidence-building step facilitated by Georgia.
The event occurred on 12 June; the EU statement was issued on 13 June. The transfer does not verify every map’s completeness or accuracy.

Azerbaijan released three Armenian detainees, subsequently welcomed by the OSCE Minsk Group Co-Chairs.
The EEAS speech identifies 4 May as the release date; the OSCE’s 5 May statement names the three people. Reports of this release are counted once.
