    YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 25, ARMENPRESS: "Between hunger and fire. Power at
    the expense of lives" a two-series documentary, released in February
    2012, is now available to the English-speaking audience as well through
    a YouTube Channel (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gxc7jdIasQg). The
    two-series documentary film is about tragic events which took place
    in Nagorno Karabakh between November 1991 and February 1992.

    The research group, composed of historians, retired politicians
    and investigative journalists, presents compelling evidence about
    that period, sheds a new light on the blockade of Stepanakert - the
    nation's capital -- as well as on activities of the political elite
    of Azerbaijan which let the tragic events of Khojaly (now Ivanyan)
    happen. The archival materials, assembled during the investigation,
    questions a range of traditional speculations and manipulations by
    Azerbaijani government, the media and 'expert community.

    The original, Russian version is available on YouTube either

    shown in the documentary, are recollected from archival materials
    found in diverse, including Azerbaijani, sources, whereas residents
    of Stepanakert and Karabakh Defense Army soldiers and officers speak
    of the blockade of nation's capital and the specifics of the operation
    to breach the blockade.

    Rich of first-time ever released materials,the documentary also
    features a rare interview of first president of Azerbaijan, Ayaz
    Mutalibov, where the latter argues the Khojaly tragedy was abused to
    topple him.

    Overall, the film shows how the Aliyev regime, step-by-step, toppled
    political opponents and seized the power in Azerbaijan and has been
    ruling the country for two decades now, silencing all the courageous
    individuals that dared to tell the truth about the incidents in
    Khojaly village and around Aghdam region.

    The film was created on the initiative of Armenia's President Public
    Relations and Information Center.
