Que prépare l'#Azerbaïdjan 🇦🇿?
Cette semaine, l'armée Azérie a renforcée massivement ses positions dans le corridor de #Latchine
Cela pourrait avoir une incidence, encercler complètement le Haut Karabagh en cas d'attaque, ce qui donnerai la défaite de l'armée d'#Artsakh 🇦🇲

El gobierno de #Azerbaiyán invitó a representantes de #Artsakh a #Bakú para celebrar una reunión para "discutir temas de integración e implementación de proyectos de infraestructura en Karabaj".
¿Qué implica el término “integración” aquí? 👇🏼
¿Qué implica el término “integración” aquí? 👇🏼
#Azerbaiyán considera a #Artsakh como territorio azerí y a su población como minoría armenia de su país. En general, el término “integración” tiene una connotación positiva;sin embargo, Azerbaiyán se refiere al modo en que termine de ocupar la totalidad de Artsakh ¿Esto es malo?
Sí.El gobierno de #Azerbaiyán afirma en lo discursivo que protegerá los #derechos del pueblo de #Artsakh como sus ciudadanos.Sin embargo,en la práctica,la toma de la totalidad de Artsakh implica limpieza étnica. #Armenia asegura que la vida de un armenio no está garantizada en 🇦🇿
1/5 The armed forces of Azerbaijan went to provocation in #NagornoKarabakh. On March 25, they violated the line of contact in the Shushi-Lisagor section and occupied the territory of Nagorno-Karabakh.

2/5 The government of #Karabakh expects the peacekeeping forces of the #Russia to take steps to eliminate the #Azerbaijani violation. For days, 🇦🇿 has been spreading the lie that ammunition is being transported from 🇦🇲 to NK via the Stepanakert-Ghaibalishen-Lisagor mountain road.
3/5 It was a false pretext in order to carry out this provocation. Karabakh announced that, being surrounded for more than 100 days, this mountain road is being used to communicate with 4 villages of Stepanakert, Shushi regions.
#Artsakh/ #NagornoKarabakh is my home. It has been an honor to serve as State Minister for our people, our republic & our unwavering struggle for a free Artsakh.
I want to thank President Haratunyan for our time serving together. While we may have different views on the issues, we have common red lines, which no one can cross –– red lines important to preserve our dignity & ensure #Artsakh is free & #Armenian.
The people of Artsakh have demonstrated their strength in unity and resolve to stand together in their fight for justice and self-respect. While we have accomplished a lot together during this very challenging period, I am confident, we can do much more.
#OTD 10 Dec 1991, 30 years ago, a nationwide referendum on the political future of #Artsakh was held in the Republic of Artsakh (#NagornoKarabakh Republic), as a result of which the overwhelming majority of the voters (99.89%) voted for independence.
#Armenia #History 🧵
#Armenia #History 🧵
The referendum was held in full compliance with the then national legislation in force, democratic procedures & norms of int'l law. All necessary conditions were created for holding a referendum on the entire territory of the Republic. 82% of the citizens took part in the voting.
The preparation and holding of the referendum took place against the background of a purposefully pursued policy of Azerbaijan to escalate tensions, which became explosive and subsequently turned into a full-scale war against Artsakh and its people.
Zwischen #Aserbaidschan und #Armenien sind die Kämpfe wieder aufgeflammt. /TN
Azertag (staatliche aserbaidschanische "Nachrichten"-Agentur) hat es mittlerweile auch bestätigt.

1. The #Armenia|n authorities once again failed the deadlines for the construction of a new residential quarter in Shurnukh village (#Syunik).
At first, residents were told they would receive houses (13) by the end of summer 2021.

❗️ 1) #Azerbaijan controls about 42 sq km of #Armenia's territory, the Armenian MOD responded to my request.
"The total volume of invasion of Azerbaijani Armed Forces units into the sovereign territory of #Armenia since May 2021 is 41.78 sq km."

2) I didn't ask the MOD general data, but "how many sq km of the territory of #Armenia was occupied by #Azerbaijan south of Khoznavar."

At the end of May, the Armenian MFA announced the occupation of more than 45 sq km only (!) in the Sotk-Khoznavar area...

‼️There are battles in the area of the Berdzor (Lachin) corridor in #Artsakh. The #Azerbaijan’i Armed Forces have approached the village of Yehtsaoh and are trying to take up a position on a hill adjacent to the road. Battles are fought using a mortar.
There are wounded on the Armenian side.
Earlier today, the secretary of the Security Council of Armenia stated that Azerbaijan's demand to change the route of the Lachin corridor is illegal.
The previously mentioned Mikhail Podolyak was quick to use the #Bucha "massacre" to ask for more weapons
It's worth noting that the Rus Army left the town on Mar 30,,,,4 days ago but footage appeared only today

In den letzten Tagen ist der Konflikt zwischen dem #Yemen und #SaudiArabia deutlich eskaliert.
Die #Houthis haben saudische Ölanlagen mit Dutzenden Drohnen attackiert.
Teile der Anlagen sind komplett niedergebrannt.
#Saudis flogen Luftangriffe als Vergeltung.

Die saudische Flugabwehr präsentierte sich wieder mal als recht löchrig.
Einige der Drohnen konnten wohl abgeschossen werden, etwa zwei Dutzend kamen dennoch durch.
Das Ganze ist durchaus erstaunlich, da Riad eigentlich über moderne Flugabwehrsysteme aus den USA verfügt.

Freunde und Freundinnen,
Liebe Lesende,
Viele sind in Aufruhr, ein #Schreck durchzieht sie seit einigen Tagen - der Krieg ist so nah!
Liebe Lesende,
Viele sind in Aufruhr, ein #Schreck durchzieht sie seit einigen Tagen - der Krieg ist so nah!
Der #Krieg, der immer dagewesen ist, nur eben etwas entfernter war und daher bewusst ausgeblendet und verdrängt werden konnte - und somit den eigenen #Alltag nicht bestimmen.
Jetzt nähert sich das, was Bewegungen wie die @ezln und die @KckUnion / @KckKurdistan schon lange als #Weltkrieg bezeichnen und plötzlich kommt alles in #Bewegung: #Spenden werden gesammelt, Kisten gepackt, Freiwillige fahren...
The Russian invasion of #Ukraine - Every attempt to redraw maps and country boundaries is criminal! We, however, ought to ask ourselves what caused this blatant by #Russia violation of international law?
Will this 👇 eventually become the new map of Ukraine? [Thread] 1/4

Annexation and territorial conquest is a flagrant violation of international law! Then why,
- the redrawing of the map of the Balkans (#Kosovo) has been ratified by the #West?
- the Russian annexation of #Crimea has silently been accepted by the international community? 2/4

The attempt of #Turkey to annex the occupied by Turkey northern part of #Cyprus is another example of a blatant violation of international law that the world's mighty are deliberately ignoring. And so is for another #Artsakh. 3/4

في هذه الصورة يمكنك أن ترى بوضوح أن كلاً من تركيا وناختشفان يعبران الحدود مع إيران ، وهي جوارنا مع أرمينيا ، واسم هذا المكان هو زنغزور.
تعتبر تركيا وأذربيجان أنه يجب عليهما احتلال هذا الجزء من أرمينيا ، وهذا يعني أنه لن يكون لدينا حدود مع أرمينيا.

هذا له فائدتان رئيسيتان لهم(تركيا و اذربيجان) ؛
أولاً ، بدون الحاجة لإيران ، سيكون لتركيا 🇹🇷 طريق بري مباشر مع باكو..
ثانيًا ، سيسيطرون عمليًا على الطريق الواصل بين إيران 🇮🇷 و أوروبا من أرمينيا 🇦🇲

In this thread I'll be listing the churches of #Yerevan, #Armenia. I'll break them down by district and go attempt to chronicle the history of each structure.

Kentron District is the historic core of Yerevan. Its where the former Fortress of Yerevan was located and is home to 125,453 people (as of the 2011 Census).
The Cathedral of Saint Sargis (Surb Sargis Mayr Yekełetsi) is located in the historic Dzoragyugh neighborhood of Kentron District. The site has been home to a monastic complex since the 4th century.
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.
1) You claimed the “Karabakh issue” was solved.
2) Your political party is the only one performing (a circus)
3) Democracy... you rank “not free” according for @freedomhouse
4) Economic freedom? Your government owns SOCAR (81% of your economy is oil based).
5) Strengthen what?

Operation Ring (April 30-May 15, 1991)
17,000 Armenians from 11 villages in Shahumyan (Goranboy Rayon) and 6 villages in Getashen (Göygöl Rayon) were forcibly expelled by Soviet troops of the 23rd Guards Motor Rifle Division and the soldiers of the Soviet Azerbaijani OMOM units.

Some other pictures from the removal from Shahumyan and Getashen. I didn’t include ones that depict the violence due to their graphic nature. 50 Armenian civilians died during the operation.
Two of the larger settlements depicted before and after the expulsion, and their subsequent abandonment.

Spent a week reporting in #Karabakh / #Artsakh, covering it from the Armenian side (Azerbaijan refuses entry to independent journalists: rsf.org/en/azerbaijan).
Some thoughts on the frontlines...
My first impressions were just how desperately sad and eerie it is out there.
Some thoughts on the frontlines...
My first impressions were just how desperately sad and eerie it is out there.
Brave young men are stationed at vulnerable outposts often with inadequate equipment. They received little training before being drafted. They have done and will do everything they can to keep fighting, but I don’t think the government has done enough for them to be honest.
On one of the frontlines in Martuni (which was roughly 2km away from an Azeri outpost, that’s on higher ground no less) the soldiers had equipment mostly donated to them via the Armenian diaspora. Some weren’t even issued boots by the government.
2) The the name "Nakhichevan" in #Armenian literally means "the place of first descent", a Biblical reference to the descent of Noah's Ark on the adjacent Mount #Ararat. Armenian tradition says that Nakhichevan was founded by Noah.
3) The region was at the center of the ancient Kingdom of #Armenia (858 BC-428 CE). During the invasion by Sassanid #Persian Shah Shapur II (r. 309-379) he removed 2,000 Armenian and 16,000 #Jewish families from #Nakhichevan (360-370 CE).

#Azerbaijani Soldaten rechtfertigen die Schändungen mit den Worten "Sie taten uns vor 30 Jahren das Gleiche an".
Diese "Rechtfertigung" mag für sie logisch erscheinen, widerspricht jedoch den Behauptungen von Aliyev, dass #Armenians in Karabach nichts befürchten müssen.
