The Azerbaijani media have once again made use of falsifications publishing a black-and-white mute video which, as the Azerbaijani media claims, shows ‘the liquidation of two Armenian soldiers by the Azerbaijani forces.’

Watching that video it is even impossible to claim that it was taken in NKR or on the frontline: neither landscape, nor human figures, nor their forms, and nor the moment of the ‘liquidation’ are seen.

Commenting on the video for Panorama.am, Artsrun Hovhannisyan, a spokesman for the Ministry of Defense of Armenia, stated, “It is not serious: another low-quality, obscure video in the Azerbaijani media. The Azerbaijani side has embarked on a new and lower level of obvious falsifications which looks plainly ridiculous. Earlier the Armenian side officially confirmed the death of 2 NKR Defense Army soldiers; the NKR Defense Army report also included the cause of their death. I’ve got nothing else to add,” he concluded.

At the beginning of February, the Azerbaijani media spread a 42-minutes-long video of extremely low quality, which allegedly demonstrated the footage of how the Azerbaijani soldiers liquidated ‘the Armenian subversion group of six in their attempt to cross the minefield in the frontline.’ However, because of the quality of the above-mentioned video it was impossible even to confirm that it demonstrated soldiers. It was also difficult to tell by the landscape and surroundings when or where it had been taken. It could only be noticed that the video had been taken in the daytime; yet the subversions, as it is well-known, do not take place in the daytime. The very moment of the “diversionists’” liquidation is not observed in the video.
