Ombudsman: 5th closed report on Azerbaijani atrocities against captured ethnic Armenians completed
The fifth closed report on atrocities committed by the Azerbaijani armed forces against captured ethnic Armenians and bodies has been finished, Armenia’s Human Rights Defender (Ombudsman) Arman Tatoyan said in a Facebook post on Thursday.
“It is the 5th report covering only torture and cruelty and refers to the period from November 19-December 2. We have already started preparation of the 6th report,” he wrote.
“This report provides concrete evidence of all atrocities and war crimes committed by the Azerbaijani armed forces. All these were committed only because people were ethnic Armenians. These are the result of the Azerbaijani state supported policy of hate speech in Azerbaijan.
“The report contains evidence and analysis confirming the Azerbaijani policy of ethnic cleansing and genocide through terroristic methods in Artsakh.
“P.S. We do not publish the content of the report given the severity of atrocities and torture committed by Azerbaijan. It will be submitted to international bodies, as well as to relevant state bodies of Armenia,” the ombudsman said.
