In the last week of September 2023, refugees began arriving rapidly in Armenia following renewed hostilities in Karabakh. As of 12 October, an estimated 101,848 refugees had crossed the border, and more than 99.3 % of them had been registered by the authorities.

More than half of them are reported to be women and girls; an estimated 2,070 women are currently pregnant, 54 have given birth since arriving in Armenia, and an estimated 1,380 will give birth in the coming 6 months. 31% of refugees are reported to be under 18 years old, and around 18% are reported to be older people.

The government of Armenia and UN agencies, including UNFPA, are currently implementing a rapid needs assessment that will help all service providers tailor the emergency response based on their specific needs.
