YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 23, ARMENPRESS. Azeri telegram channels are distributing photos of missing civilians in Nagorno-Karabakh and making death threats, the Nagorno-Karabakh Human Rights Defender Gegham Stepanyan said on X.

"The Office of the Human Rights Defender is receiving multiple terrifying reports about Azerbaijani information terror actively conducted against the civilian population of Artsakh. Azerbaijani telegram channels encourage people to find, kill, torture, and rape the missing persons of Artsakh, even offering money for that. Many relatives of the missing people, who are already in a vulnerable psychological state, complain about Azerbaijan terrorising and threatening them by calls and text messages. This is yet another _expression_ of Armenophobia and ethnic hatred, which only proves that the civilian population will not have any security guarantees if it is placed under the control of Azerbaijan," Stepanyan posted on X.
