Hundreds of Armenian Americans and their supporters gathered outside the Azerbaijan Consulate in Los Angeles on September 30, in response to what protest organizers said were the “attacks and aggressions” of Azerbaijan in Nagorno-Karabakh.

The Nagorno-Karabakh region is formally recognized as a part of the territory of Azerbaijan by the UN, but is run by its ethnic Armenian majority. Fighting broke out in the region on September 27 and has continued since. Credit: Varuzhan Antonyan via Storyful
