National Human Rights Institutions in Armed Conflicts," Trend reports.
Safikhanli highlighted Armenia's severe breaches of
international law and humanitarian law during its 30-year

terror," noting that landmines planted on Azerbaijani land pose a

approximately 4,000 Azerbaijanis went missing during the first
Karabakh war, with their whereabouts still unknown.
The head of the office also mentioned that factual reports on
the aftermath of Armenian aggression, compiled by the Ombudsman's

ombudsmen, and national human rights institutions.
