Photos: Consequences of Azerbaijan’s shelling of Shushi

The Azerbaijani military continued shelling the civilian settlements of Nagorno-Karabakh, heavily targeting the city of Shushi.

Photos published by Karabakh's infocenter reveal the consequences of Azeri rocket attacks on Shushi.

Karabakh (Artsakh) Human Rights Defender Artak Beglaryan told a press conference on Wednesday, November 4 that the Azerbaijani military fired cluster munitions on the city of Shushi, the town of Martuni and other settlements on Tuesday.

Beglaryan said the night was tense in Shushi, where civilian objects were targeted, residents were injured and quite a lot of destruction was caused overnight.

The Azeri forces fired rockets on Stepanakert, Karabakh's capital on Tuesday evening, injuring two passers-by.

Azerbaijan, with help from Turkey and terrorist mercenaries deployed by Ankara, started a war against Karabakh (Artsakh) in the morning of September 27. The Armenian side has reported deaths and injuries both among the civilian population and the military. Foreign and local journalists too have been injured in Azeri shelling of towns and villages.
