BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 17. Today marks the
fourth anniversary of Armenia's fifth bloody missile strike on
Azerbaijan's Ganja city, which occurred on the night of October 17,
2020, Trend
reports.
16 innocent civilians lost their lives and 55 more were injured
when the enemy missile attack hit the heart of the city.
Armenia's military-political leadership, having implemented a
policy of terror against the civilian population, has grossly and
deliberately violated the Geneva Convention, UN resolutions and
provisions, the Hague Convention, UNESCO, as well as other
international and regional organizations, and in particular the
obligations undertaken by this country.
Throughout the conflict, Ganja endured a total of five missile
and heavy artillery attacks, which claimed 26 lives, injured 175
people, and caused severe damage to civilian infrastructure and
vehicles.
The war, which began on September 27, 2020, and lasted 44 days,
saw the deaths of 93 Azerbaijani civilians, including 54 men, 27
women, and 12 children. Additionally, 444 people were injured,
including 268 men, 109 women, and 67 children, as a result of
Armenia's military actions.
Notably, the former so-called“president” of the Karabakh
separatists, Arayik Harutyunyan, who was accused of orchestrating
terrorist attacks on Ganja's civilian population during the Second
Karabakh War, has been detained by the State Security Service and
transferred to Baku.
