Nagorno-Karabakh: Armenia & Azerbaijan Accuse Each Other of Rocket Attacks 🚀

Footage released by Armenia's government-run information centre shows artillery strikes in Stepanakert, the capital of the separatist territory of Nagorno-Karabakh, on Sunday.

Armenian authorities have claimed civilian casualties as a result of the shelling, but in a statement issued on Sunday, Azerbaijan’s Defense Ministry rejected accusations of targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure.

On the other hand, the accusation by Armenian authorities comes as Azerbaijan on Sunday accused Armenia of shelling its second-largest city Ganja.

The conflict in the Nagorno-Karabakh area has already claimed more than 200 victims since the fighting broke out on September 27.

The territory, that lies within Azerbaijan, has been under the control of ethnic Armenian forces and the Armenian military since the end of the separatist war in 1994 that killed about 30,000 people and displaced an estimated 1 million.
