“Armenia, defeated by our glorious army, sees a way out by striking the territories remote from the combat zone, civilian and strategic facilities, civilians, women and children.”

According to the e-huquq.az, this was stated by former MP, political scientist Yusif Bagirzde, commenting on the launch of ballistic missiles by the Armenian armed forces in Gabala, Kurdamir and Siyazan.

He said that this incident was a crime against humanity committed by the criminal fascist regime of Armenia: “As you know, since September 27, 63 civilians have died and 293 have been injured as a result of attacks by the hated enemy. There are many children and women among the dead and injured. Gabala, a great tourist center far from the war in Azerbaijan, has been the target of an Armenian missile strike. Along with civilian targets and the civilian population, the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline, the South Caucasus Pipeline and the Western Export Pipeline were also targeted by Armenia. However, as officially announced by the military command of the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan, the targets of the Azerbaijani army are the military infrastructure, firing positions and military units of the enemy. "The armed forces of Azerbaijan are conducting counter-offensive operations in the sovereign territories of Azerbaijan in accordance with international humanitarian law and the Geneva Convention."

The political scientist stressed that these facts provide grounds for criminal prosecution of the political leadership of Armenia: "All of this show that Armenia is a great threat not only to the region, but to the whole world. In this regard, the UN Security Council, the International Court of Justice and other organizations, including Pashinyan, must take measures to bring the leadership of the so-called regime to justice as soon as possible.

Yusif Bagirzade said that the counter-offensive carried out by the Azerbaijani army in response to the next provocative actions of the Armenian armed forces against our country on September 27 inflicted heavy losses on the enemy both in military equipment and in manpower. "Part of our territories has already been liberated from Armenian occupation. President of Azerbaijan, Supreme Commander-in-Chief Ilham Aliyev brings good news to our people every day. Today, Azerbaijan is on the right path and in accordance with international law, is liberating its lands from Armenian occupation. "
