A rally marking the 22nd anniversary of the Khojaly genocide has been held in Rome, Italy.

 

Supported by the Azerbaijani Embassy in Italy, the event was organized by the Azerbaijani-Italian Youth Association as part of “Justice for Khojaly” international awareness campaign.

 

The goal of the rally was to deliver the realities about the Armenia-Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh and the Khojaly genocide to the Italian society.

 

Local residents and tourists were informed about the genocide, which claimed the lives of 613 people, including 63 children, 106 women and 70 elders.

 

The rally participants distributed Italian language booklets and brochures reflecting the realities of the Khojaly massacre among the city residents.
