20:51 24/02/2014 " REGION
Azerbaijani media actively disseminate information that allegedly
the monitors installed in the center of Times Square in New York City
demonstrate graphics, for already several days, promoting Azerbaijani
version of Aghdam events taken place in 1992.
"Unlike the last year, this year every two minutes a video lasting
30 seconds appears on two large screens in the Times Square," the
statement reads.
In this regard, a reader turned to Panorama.am editorial office,
and provided a video footagewhich clearly showed that on February 22,
in 2014 there have been no graphics, posters or banners detected on
the Times Square concerning the Aghdam events. The video that lasts
for more than two minutes shows advertisements changing one after
another and there is no Azerbaijani video shown there.
The movie telling about Aghdam events was not detected also on the
23rd of February.
On February 26, 1992, during the war in Karabakh, around 200 to
300 people (according to Human Right Watch, and 600 according to the
version propagated by Azerbaijan) were killed in unknown circumstances
near the city of Aghdam. They have been deliberately withheld by the
Azerbaijani authorities in the midst of the military actions.
Population of the village of Khojalu, which was one of the firing
points shooting at the blockaded Stepanakert (among five others)
was kept in the village for months by force and was not evacuated by
the authorities of Azerbaijan deliberately, in order to use them as
human shields later.
Residents of Khojalu coming out through the humanitarian corridor,
that the self-defense forces of NKR had left open, freely passed more
than 10 km and reached the Aghdam city controlled by the Azerbaijani
troops. Later, not far from the positions of Azerbaijani troops dead
bodies of the villagers were found. The exact death toll remains
unknown as the official Baku publishes data contradicting each other.
Parliamentary Commission investigating the tragic death of the
civilians at Aghdam city was dissolved by the order of Heydar Aliyev,
the investigative materials are kept secret.
