CSTO MILITARY ALLIANCE CHIEF HEADING TO ARMENIA

Armenia has been granted a degree of military support from the CSTO alliance, after an attack by Azerbaijan earlier in the week.

Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan invoked Article 4 of the Collective Security Treaty Organisation — a military alliance dubbed the NATO of post-Soviet states — which allows one member to request the help of the others.

It's the same Russia-led alliance that intervened in Kazakhstan in January this year.

Stuart Smith has more from Moscow.
