A good two months after the end of the fighting in the conflict region Nagorno-Karabakh in the South Caucasus, the search for killed soldiers and civilians continues.
The Nagorno-Karabakh authorities alone have so far recovered 1,184 bodies. According to their own statements, specialists from Azerbaijan have so far recovered the bodies of 334 killed Azerbaijani soldiers and 988 Armenian armed forces.
In total, more than 2,000 bodies have been discovered. The work has not yet been completed, said the head of the responsible state commission, according to Azerbaijani media. Forensic doctors in Armenia said they had examined about 3,360 killed soldiers.

During the last #KarabakhWar, many experts and journalists shared their views on the history of the conflict. They were able to inform completely ignorant people. But there are some issues that all experts should be able to explain more objectively. ⬇️
Before moving on to these aspects, I could remind that the conflict between Armenians and Azerbaijanis is divided into 4 periods:
1) The period of first revolution in Russia (1905-1906)
2) The period of formation of nation states after Russian Empire (1918-1920) ⬇️
3) The first years of Sovietisation in the South #Caucasus (1920-1923) and
4) Period of β€œperestroika” in the USSR, which began with Armenia's land claim to Karabakh (1988). ⬇️

Today, Ilham Aliyev openly criticised the behaviour of the #OSCE Minsk Group co-chairs, especially #Russia & #France. Although he did not name Kremlin directly, he accused third country for supplying arms to #Armenia during last #KarabakhWar. ⬇️
The main criticism was on passive role of co-chairs for implementation of UN resolutions in past 27 years.
Criticism of AZ officials on #KarabakhConflict increased since the occupation of #Crimea in 2014 and separatism in Eastern #Ukraine. ⬇️
They demanded that #Armenia should be punished in the same way, citing sanctions on #Russia for violating Ukraine's territorial integrity. It is clear that the AZ side will insist at the next Geneva meeting withdrawal of Armenian troops from the occupied territories and ⬇️

The #UnitedNations Security Council meeting on 19 October was the next confrontation between the positions of #Armenia and #Azerbaijan that have emerged in the international discussions around #KarabakhConflict over the past years. ⬇️
Until now, #Armenia has been considered a representative of the real political status because it controls #NagornoKarabakh and surrounding regions. #Azerbaijan referred to the UN resolutions on restoration of its legal jurisdiction over the occupied territories. ⬇️
It is clear from the speeches of AZE officials that the draft statement prepared by France&Russia at the #UNSC meeting on the #Karabakhwar on October 19 was not adopted. The reason for this was that the draft statement did not refer to four UN resolutions adopted in 1993. ⬇️

#Armenia says, #Azerbaijan shelled #Stepanakert & outskirts.
Then Azerbaijan says, Karabakh shell #Ganja.
Then Armenia says, Azerbaijan shells Khnatsakh, Artsvanik & David Bek (Armenia). 2 drones are downed in Armenia.

No shelling for some days. So who started this now?
#Azerbaijan media shares vid of #Armenia|n Grad in action, claim Armenians target Ganja & Mingechaur.
Armenian Grad has 20km range.
Distance to Ganja: 40km, Mingechaur: 50+.
I trust @ShStepanyan. And there are more important targets, than civilian houses.
One of the most dangerous aspects of war - is endless cycle of revenges. Murder, and revenge, and revenge for revenge, w/ no end. Previous war revenges had already passed away in 30 yrs. No we are gaining new ones. And why is this for? For #Aliyev revanchism?

A valuable evidence from a Syrian mercenary, who returned from #Azerbaijan.

#KarabakhWar is actually now the most intensive war actions that took place in the global region for decades.
"Families gathered at #Syria-#Turkey border, waiting for drivers to dispense 52 Syrian men bodies, killed in war 600m away. They were mercenaries, recruited by Turkey-backed militias to fight on behalf of #Azerbaijan against #Armenia, relatives said" washingtonpost.com/world/middle_e… Image
And another flight route to Baku from Bagram, #Afghanistan these day. Afghanistan is very likely provides mercenaries/weaponry to #Azerbaijan.

I support all calls for a ceasefire on #KarabakhWar now. But I observe some attempts to maintain the status quo in these calls. In fact, if the superpowers had paid attention to #Azerbaijan's calls to change the status quo in past 20 years, everything would have been different.⬇️
The area of N.Karabakh is about 4,400 sq km. Along with this area, #Armenia occupied surrounding 11000 sqkm territory. As a result, more than 600,000 Azerbaijanis became IDPs and lost their homes. ⬇️
If in the last 27 years there has not been enough pressure on the political leadership of #Armenia to solve these problems, the international community is also responsible for the current military operation in #Karabakh. ⬇️

President of Nagorno-Karabakh Arayik Harutyunyan was seriously injured in the attack by Azerbaijani forces, the assistant to the President of Azerbaijan stated.
"As a result of the accurate strike of the Azerbaijani army, the leader of the self-proclaimed republic of Nagorno-Karabakh was seriously wounded," he said.
Azerbaijan's claim pertaining to the wounding of the president of the unrecognized republic of Nagorno-Karabakh, Arayik Arutyunyan, is disinformation, said the spokesman of the separatist leader, Vagram Pogosyan.

Air siren wailing in #Stepanakert. Video taken from the open-air cafe, I always go when visiting #Karabakh.
Streets empty, people are in basements under air strike.
