THREAD: Azeri Atrocities Against Armenians (ONLY From the last couple of days) #StopAliyev

New data from the Human Rights Ombudsman of Artsakh shows the terrible civilian damage Azerbaijan's brutal attacks have inflicted: 7 innocent civilians have been killed and 30 wounded, since September 27. This is an unacceptable! #StopAliyev

Azeri bombardments targeted high density civilian areas of Artsakh all 20-30 kilometers from the line of contact. This is clear and intentional targeting of civilians which is an egregious #warcrime that Azerbaijan must answer for #StopAliyev

Among other targets, Azerbaijani drones and missiles hit infrastructure targets with the intention to causes humanitarian distress in Artsakh, yet another war crime #StopAliyev

According to the Human Rights Ombudsman, the Azeribaijani millitary hit civilian targets with Isreali-made cluster bombs and missiles. The use of cluster mutions of any kind is BANNED by international law and is a serious war crime #StopAliyev

In relentlessly targeting and murdering civilians, the Aliyev regime is violating ECHR Article 2 (right to life), and Article 8 (right to family life) and Art. 1 of Protocol 1 (right to property) in destroying private civilian settlements

Its only with international silence about these war crimes that Azerbaijan and Aliyev are able to continue committing them against the people of Artsakh. We need international attention from @OSCE regarding these violations and legal action from the @ECHR_CEDH #StopAliyev
