ICJ to consider Armenia and Azerbaijan's claims over Nagorno-Karabakh, including accusations of ethnic cleansing.

Both countries accuse each other of violating an international anti-discrimination treaty. The ICJ rejected Armenia's attempt to exclude claims related to mine-laying practices. A final ruling on the cases could take years.
