The fault of the Khojaly victims was only because they were Azerbaijanis. They were killed because they were Azerbaijanis. This genocide was a crime committed against all humanity. During the 44-day war, the Azerbaijani army avenged our shehids, the blood of the Khojaly victims did not remain on the ground."
