WNAM MONITORING: Even after the delimitation, Armenia continues its landmine terrorism policy and does not stop its actions that endanger the life and health of the population, said Sabina Aliyeva, the Commissioner for Human Rights (Ombudsman) of Azerbaijan.
The ombudsman reminded that three civilians and one military serviceman were injured today as a result of the explosion of a landmine planted by Armenia in the Gizilhajili village of Gazakh district.
Aliyeva also highlighted that the mentioned village was returned to Azerbaijan based on the agreement reached on April 19, 2024, regarding the delimitation of the Azerbaijan-Armenia border.
“Obviously, even after the delimitation, Armenia continues its policy of landmine terrorism and does not stop its actions that endanger the life and health of the population. We once again stressed that the failure to provide our country with accurate maps of landmines buried in our territories seriously hinders the safe return of former IDPs to their lands, the provision of the right to live in a healthy environment, as well as the process of border delimitation and the restoration and construction work carried out in the region,” she emphasized.
“The international community should influence Armenia towards handing over accurate mine maps to our country, and should not remain silent about its landmine terrorism,” Aliyeva underlined.
