Azerbaijani servicemen remain stationed in close proximity to Armenia's border villages and inside some parts of Armenian territory, says Arman Tatoyan, a former ombudsman who currently runs the Tatoyan Foundation for Law and Justice.

In a video posted on social media on Tuesday, he insisted on the withdrawal of Azerbaijani troops from the areas to ensure security of Armenian border residents.

“Over time Azerbaijan has developed various methods of inflicting torture and sufferings on the Armenian society. I’m referring to the attacks on Gegharkunik, Syunik and Vayots Dzor Provinces on 12-13 September 2022,” the ex-ombudsman said.

“I’d like to emphasize that this situation is obviously orchestrated and sponsored by the Azerbaijani authorities. Otherwise, why hasn’t anyone been held to account for their actions? Hence, I consistently assert that the Azerbaijani soldiers, who are likely the same individuals responsible for those atrocities, are currently stationed near our borders and have even invaded Armenian territory,” he stated.
