Turkish-Backed Azeri Forces Ethnically Cleansing Armenian population……. Again

The Turks have gotten away with this monstrous genocide for well over 100 years now (specifically the Armenians). Unlike the Nazis, they refused to acknowledge or apologize for their unimaginable atrocities which is why they continue today with impunity.

Azeri forces, backed by Turkey/Erdogan military have destroyed numerous Armenian Churches, homes and businesses over the past several months. Reminiscent of Armenian genocide (Shusha Massacre 1920) recent satellite photos show the destruction suffered by Armenians. Kanach Zham Church, built in 1818 destroyed in an act of hate against Armenian Christians.

Note the Muslim Azeri forces did not completely destroy the Kanach Zham church, as shown in this 1920 photo.

03/29/2021 Nagorno-Karabakh (International Christian Concern) –  Recent satellite and video footage reveals the partial destruction of Shushi’s Armenian Kanach Zham Church. The city and church now remain under Azeri control. In light of the most recent damaged church, the Interparliamentary Assembly on Orthodoxy (IAO) called for the protection of Christian monuments in Nagorno-Karabakh.

Satellite photos taken four months apart, one in October 2020 and one in February 2021, show the church domes completely destroyed. Saint John the Baptist Church, also known as Kanach Zham, reportedly faced partial demolition by Azeri troops just days after Shushi came under their control.

This vandalism against Armenian Christian heritage sites adds to the list including Ghazanchetsots Cathedral of Shushi, St. Astvatsatsin Church of Mekhakavan, and others. President Alivey also identified a 12th-century Armenian church to be an Albanian church and expressed his intentions to renovate it.

The IAO Secretary General said in a statement that the Armenian Christians sites now under Azeri control required “immediate registration and protection from the international community and the competent international bodies. We therefore, call on the UN and UNESCO to contribute to the protection of the cultural wealth and monuments of the Armenian people, now under the administration of Azerbaijan and not to allow changes in their use or destruction.”

Aljazeera, April 2021:

A military parade was held on Thursday in the Azerbaijani capital in celebration of the peace deal with Armenia over Nagorno-Karabakh that saw Azerbaijan reclaim much of the breakaway region along with surrounding areas.

The agreement took place exactly a month ago and put an end to six weeks of fierce fighting over Nagorno-Karabakh. It was seen as a big victory in Azerbaijan, but prompted mass protests in Armenia, with opposition supporters demanding the country’s prime minister resign over his handling of the conflict.
