Incredible work by @JonahFisherBBC here, who has documented the first complete destruction of a church in #Artsakh by #Azerbaijan following the war, despite minders and efforts to cover it up.

Shocking to see this - and yet completely unsurprising, sadly.
The interview with @HikmetHajiyev is just awful. It's clear to see that this church hasn't been destroyed by accident, but was completely razed with heavy machinery. Ethnic cleansing carried out as a state policy. Simply deeply disgusting.
Yet, I'm also not impressed by @Aivazian_Ara and his statements. Everyone who has been to #Agdam and other cities in the "buffer zone" has seen that they've been systematically destroyed, too, and it's time to admit it, imho.

Not only international law, but historical, geographical and economic factors make Mountainous (Upper) #Karabakh attached to #Azerbaijan. British Commander in #Transcaucasia Colonel D.I. Shuttleworth in April 1919 asserted that that Mountainous Karabakh would starve were it
separated from the plains in the east and vital railway link at Yevlakh on the Batum-Tiflis-Baku line. The Caucasus Bureau also made it clear in its decision that the economic ties between Upper (Nagorno) and Lower #Karabakh are strong, so Upper Karabakh should be retained within
#Azerbaijan. Since the Karabakh War ended, the area has swiftly declined economically due to the break in economic relations with #Azerbaijan. All Mountainous #Karabakh’s business was conducted with the closest cities such as #Ganja and #Agdam rather than distant #Armenia.
