Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources Azerbaijan’s Ecology and
Natural Resources Ministry reports that it has completed monitoring
of arson committed by Armenians in the occupied areas of Azerbaijan.

A report on the monitoring will be sent to international organizations.

Since March this year Armenians have started fires over 250 hectares
in Fizuli and Agdam districts, causing damage worth 248,130 AZN
($308,850), the ministry said.

The Armenians appear to have started the fires in order to conceal
the widespread destruction they have caused in the occupied areas and
to try to link it with high temperatures on those days. The ministry
includes in its report weather statistics for the days in question.

Since 2006, Armenians have been committing arson in occupied
Azerbaijani territory, Azerbaijan’s state news agency AzerTAj reports.

The Armenian side denies arson, saying that the fires occur naturally.
