Azerbaijanis in New York arranged an information campaign
against military provocations and the aggressive policy of Armenia
against Azerbaijan, the Azerbaijani State Committee on Work with
Diaspora said.
During the campaign, a car with an LED screen, which displayed
Azerbaijani realities, moved around the Manhattan district, the
historical center of the metropolis.
The screen displayed slogans, such as 'Azerbaijan wants peace,
Armenia wants war!', 'Armenia distorts facts, deceives
international community!', 'Armenian mines are war crimes!',
'Armenia destroyed the cultural heritage of Azerbaijan in
Armenia!', 'Armenian mines kill civilian population' and images
covering these topics.
The campaign, which aimed to draw the attention of the urban
public to the military provocations of Armenia, was organized by
the Azerbaijani Women of America Association, and Azerbaijani
Cultural Center in New York City, which are member organizations of
the Azerbaijanis Coordination Council in America.
To recap, units of the Armenian armed forces carried out
large-scale provocations along the Azerbaijani-Armenian state
border in the Dashkasan, Kalbajar, and Lachin directions on the
night of September 12 leading to 13. The Armenian sabotage groups
mined land and supply roads linking the positions of the
Azerbaijani army units in different directions, taking advantage of
the area's steep topography and existing ravine gaps.
The clashes between the sides ensued as a result of the urgent
efforts made by the Azerbaijani armed forces to quell these
activities. As a result, 79 armed forces personnel were killed, the
ministry detailed.
So far, the Armenian government reported 207 losses among its
own military personnel. Moreover, 293 soldiers and three civilians
were wounded, and 20 soldiers were taken as prisoners.
