AN APPEAL
OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL COURT OF THE
REPUBLIC OF AZERBAIJAN TO CONSTITUTIONAL JUSTICE INSTITUTIONS OF ALL COUNTRIES CONCERNING
THE ACTS OF TERRORISM COMMITTED BY THE MILITARY AND POLITICAL LEADERSHIP OF
ARMENIA ON OCTOBER 27 AND 28, 2020 AGAINST THE CIVILIAN POPULATION IN THE CITY
OF BARDA OF THE REPUBLIC OF AZERBAIJAN
Armenian
armed forces continue the gross violation of the humanitarian ceasefire by using
of heavy artillery and missiles, shell the densely populated Azerbaijani
settlements, civilian objects, including a number of private residential houses
and multi-apartment buildings and households that caused the destructions and
wildfires.
Thus, on October 27,
the armed forces of Armenia continued the commission of war crimes by using the
cluster bombs prohibited by international law and shelled the city of Barda from
different directions with heavy artillery. As a result 4 civilians were killed
and 13 were injured.
On October 28, 21 civilians were killed
and about 70 were injured in the city of Barda as a result of new missile attacks launched by Armenia.
As a result of the terrorist attacks committed on October 27 and 28, the minors
and women were among the killed and injured. Serious damage was inflicted upon
the civilian infrastructure.
The brutal killing of civilians as a result of a two day of consecutive missile
attacks on the city of Barda, which is located approximately 40 km far from the
war zone, once again manifestates the Armenian fascism.
In total, since September 27, the Armenian armed forces have killed 90
civilians and have injured 392 in various cities of Azerbaijan.
These terrorist acts
against civilian population once again demonstrates that the military and political
leadership of Armenia violates the international humanitarian law, in
particular the Geneva Convention relative to the Protection of Civilian
Persons in Time of War of 12 August 1949, the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and and
does not abandon its aggressive policy, thereby grossly violating other
international human rights instruments, and continues to commit the crimes
against peace and humanity.
We call upon the constitutional justice institutions of all countries to condemn the brutal aggression policy of the Armenian government, which uses the prohibited weapons and violates the international law, for the war crimes and crimes against humanity committed against the civilian population of Azerbaijan.
