STEPANAKERT, OCTOBER 29, ARMENPRESS. The Azerbaijani military is bombarding the city of Stepanakert and the towns of Shushi and Martakert in Artsakh using the Smerch heavy multiple rocket launchers, the Ministry of Defense of Artsakh said.

“Once again violating the requirements of international humanitarian and customary laws, Azerbaijan has opened fire exclusively on peaceful settlements, leading to victims among the civilian population of Artsakh. The Azerbaijani military-political leadership is committing another war crime. The Azerbaijani criminal regime bears entire responsibility for the further escalation of the situation,” the Defense Ministry said.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
