The shelling attacks in border villages by Armenian armed forces and targeting the civilians once again confirms the terrorist nature of the occupier. Unfortunately, a civilian, a resident of Aghdam village of Tovuz region, was killed as a result of artillery fire in the direction of Tovuz region. At the same time, Armenian armed forces are shooting down people's dwelling houses in Dondar Gushchu and Aghdam villages on purpose. One of the main goals of the enemy here is to stifle the patriotic spirit of the people, and make them to leave the areas where they live. However, the provocative attempts of the enemy are unsuccessful as usual. Our people not only do leave their homes, but on the contrary are ready to support our soldiers. In fact, targeting of the Azerbaijani civilian population by Armenia and the firing from heavy weapons is a clear manifestation of vandalism. Despite the peace talks on the settlement of the Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict, the enemy is grossly violating the format of the talks. Armenian armed forces kill civil persons and even do not refrain from firing on the OSCE monitoring group, which periodically observes the line of contact. That is to say, Armenia is behaving more like a terrorist organization.
Earlier, Armenians fired our settlements continuously from heavy weapons. As a result, our civilians were killed, including very young children. As a consequence of these acts of vandalism by Armenia, people’s farms, properties, the infrastructure of their living accommodations constantly have been seriously damaged. We call on the international community, especially the OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs to show tough response to this case. The targeting of the peaceful Azerbaijani population by the Armenian military units should be strongly condemned.
