(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 20. Authoritative
Ukrainian media published materials on the deaths of Azerbaijani
policemen and civilians as a result of the ongoing Armenian mine
terror on the territory of Azerbaijan, Trend reports.
The articles published on the websites of the state news agency
Ukrinform, the news portals Korrespondent, PolitDumka, and others
say that Azerbaijani policemen were killed as a result of the
explosion of an anti-tank mine planted by a sabotage and
provocation group of illegal Armenian armed groups on a section of
the Ahmedbeyli-Fuzuli-Shusha road passing through the territory of
Khojavand district. It is noted that Azerbaijani security bodies
launched an investigation into the terrorist act.
It is also emphasized that after the second Karabakh war, the
total number of deaths as a result of the rupture of laid mines
reached 61. It is reported that Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev
noted that demining of the occupied territories will last about 30
years and cost $25 billion.
In order to ensure the provisions of the Trilateral
Statement, to stop large-scale provocations in the Karabakh
economic region, to disarm and withdraw formations of the Armenian
armed forces from the territories of Azerbaijan, to neutralize
their military infrastructure, to ensure the safety of the peaceful
population returning to the territories liberated from occupation,
civil servants involved in construction and reconstruction works,
and our military personnel, as well as to restore the
constitutional order of the Republic of Azerbaijan, anti-terrorist
measures have been launched in the region.
Only military targets belonging to illegal armed
formations of the separatist regime are put out of action with the
use of high-precision weapons available in the arsenal of the
Azerbaijani Army.
Civilians and infrastructure objects are not targets
during localized anti-terrorist activities carried out in
Azerbaijan's Karabakh region.
On September 19, 2023, at 04:30 (GMT+4), as a result
of a terrorist act, on a newly built tunnel road near the village
of Taghavard in Khojavand district, a KAMAZ truck carrying
employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Azerbaijan got
blown up on a mine previously planted by illegal Armenian armed
groups [which haven't been withdrawn contrary to the trilateral
statement signed by Azerbaijani, Armenian, and Russian leaders
following the 2020 second Karabakh war] on the territory of
Azerbaijan, where Russian peacekeepers are temporarily stationed
[under the trilateral statement].
The truck was on its way to the site of the terrorist
attack that took place on the same day at the 58th kilometer of the
Ahmadbayli-Fuzuli-Shusha road passing through the Khojavand
district, which killed employees of the State Road Agency of
Azerbaijan.
The employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs,
Asim Jamalzade, Ramil Shirinov, Seymur Mahmudov, and Khazar
Zamanov, died on the spot.
