Egypt-based “Al-Masaiyya” newspaper has published an article on the occasion of the 22nd anniversary of the Khojaly genocide.
Headlined “The 22nd anniversary of the Khojaly genocide”, the article describes the tragedy as the bloodiest page in the history of Azerbaijan.
It says that in just one night, the Armenian armed forces wiped the town of Khojaly off the face of the earth. “The massacre carried out by the Armenian armed forces claimed lives of 613 civilians, including 106 women, 63 children, and 70 elders. Some 1,275 civilians were captured, with 150 of them still missing. Eight families were completely annihilated, 25 children lost both and 130 children lost one parent. Some 76 of a total of 487 wounded people were children.”
“During the invasion of Khojaly, Armenians destroyed the patterns of material culture that reflect the dynamics of social development. These are obvious examples of Armenian barbarism and aggression against the world culture. They excruciated children, elderly people and women. There is a great amount of visual proof of this brutality. Khojaly genocide terrifies journalists and publicists around the world when they obtain information about this massacre and barbarian acts of Armenians.”
The article expresses hope that authoritative international organizations like the UN, EU and OSCE, peaceful states will take measures against aggression and tyranny of Armenia. “The world must know this crime directed not only against Azerbaijan nation, but also whole civilized world, mankind.”
