Doctors report on health condition of found Armenian soldiers and villagers
The civilians found in the forest in the Gadrut District have been discharged from the hospital and placed under doctors' supervision, while the soldiers had received frostbite and continue their treatment at hospital, a source from the medical centre in Stepanakert has informed.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that six Armenian soldiers regarded as missing had returned home from the territories that now are under Azerbaijan's control.
In the course of the search works conducted in the above territories that came under Azerbaijan's control during the hostilities, six soldiers were found, and then two more civilians, Unan Tadevosyan, an employee of the Nagorno-Karabakh's Emergency Service, told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.
According to Mr Tadevosyan, all the found soldiers and civilians needed medical examination and treatment; therefore, they were immediately taken to the hospital in Stepanakert.
The civilians' health condition was satisfactory; and at the request of their relatives, they were discharged on December 23, a source from the republic's medical centre in Stepanakert told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.
All the six military servicemen need long-term treatment; therefore they will stay at hospital, the source has added. "They have problems with lower extremities due to the suffered hypothermia," he has explained.
