/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Azerbaijan has set online another `documentary’
about Khojaly, where `hospitable and peace-loving Azeris tell about
the tragedy which took place.’

The so-called documentary is full of lies and falsifications, the
Armenian Defense Ministry said in a statement.

`The `documentary’ shows that the residents who fled Khojaly were
shelled at the Armenian village of Nakhijevank. But the fact is that
Nakhijevank which is situated not far from Aghdam was not under
control of Armenian forces in February 1992,’ the Ministry said. `The
`documentary’ ends with a stirring tune and slide of photographs of
alleged victims and witnesses. Actually, one of the photographs
features an injured Armenian child. This photograph was published in
Komsomolets Kuzbassa newspaper of December 5, 1991 relating to an
article titled `Long way to Erkej.’

`We can nothing but advise the Azeri propaganda machine to be more
careful and fake up facts more professionally,’ the Ministry said.
