Armenia warned the international community of Turkish interference in its dispute with Azerbaijan after heavy fighting broke out over the breakaway Nagorny Karabakh region on Sunday.
"I call on the international community to use all existing levers to prevent Turkey's meddling which can once and for all destabilise the [Caucasus] region," Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said in a televised statement.
Turkey's "aggressive behaviour causes serious concerns", he said.
Armenia and Azerbaijan declared martial law amid fierce fighting involving tanks, aircraft and artillery. Both sides reported casualties while blaming each other for the latest clashes in their three-decade dispute over the region.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan accused Armenia of attacking Azerbaijan, saying the country had "shown once again that it is the biggest threat to peace in the region".
Turkey calls on "the entire world to stand with Azerbaijan in their battle against invasion and cruelty", Mr Erdogan said after a phone call with Azeri President Ilham Aliyev.
He said Ankara's solidarity with Baku would "increasingly continue".
Russian President Vladimir Putin called for a de-escalation during a phone call with the Armenian prime minister, the Kremlin said.
"It is important to make every effort to prevent further escalation in the confrontation; more importantly, there must be an end to hostilities," Mr Putin said.
Later on Sunday, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said Turkey was talking to members of the Minsk group, which mediates between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Russia, France and the United States are co-presidents of the group.
The long-running conflict is a concern for western and regional countries in part because the South Caucasus serves as a corridor for pipelines transporting oil and gas to world markets.

Tips to stay safe during hot weather
- Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of fluids, especially water. Avoid alcohol and caffeine, which can increase dehydration.
- Seek cool environments: Use air conditioning, fans, or visit community spaces with climate control.
- Limit outdoor activities: Avoid strenuous activity during peak heat. If outside, seek shade and wear a wide-brimmed hat.
- Dress appropriately: Wear lightweight, loose and light-coloured clothing to facilitate heat loss.
- Check on vulnerable people: Regularly check in on elderly neighbours, young children and those with health conditions.
- Home adaptations: Use blinds or curtains to block sunlight, avoid using ovens or stoves, and ventilate living spaces during cooler hours.
- Recognise heat illness: Learn the signs of heat exhaustion and heat stroke (dizziness, confusion, rapid pulse, nausea), and seek medical attention if symptoms occur.

What you as a drone operator need to know
A permit and licence is required to fly a drone legally in Dubai.
Sanad Academy is the United Arab Emirate’s first RPA (Remotely Piloted Aircraft) training and certification specialists endorsed by the Dubai Civil Aviation authority.
It is responsible to train, test and certify drone operators and drones in UAE with DCAA Endorsement.
“We are teaching people how to fly in accordance with the laws of the UAE,” said Ahmad Al Hamadi, a trainer at Sanad.
“We can show how the aircraft work and how they are operated. They are relatively easy to use, but they need responsible pilots.
“Pilots have to be mature. They are given a map of where they can and can’t fly in the UAE and we make these points clear in the lectures we give.
“You cannot fly a drone without registration under any circumstances.”
Larger drones are harder to fly, and have a different response to location control. There are no brakes in the air, so the larger drones have more power.
The Sanad Academy has a designated area to fly off the Al Ain Road near Skydive Dubai to show pilots how to fly responsibly.
“As UAS technology becomes mainstream, it is important to build wider awareness on how to integrate it into commerce and our personal lives,” said Major General Abdulla Khalifa Al Marri, Commander-in-Chief, Dubai Police.
“Operators must undergo proper training and certification to ensure safety and compliance.
“Dubai’s airspace will undoubtedly experience increased traffic as UAS innovations become commonplace, the Forum allows commercial users to learn of best practice applications to implement UAS safely and legally, while benefitting a whole range of industries.”
