2021-04-02 16:50:53 azerbaijan announced the use of a specific Iskander missile which only belongs to the Russian Federation and is not subject for export or sale to another country.

Idris Ismayilov, a spokesman for the Azerbaijani Agency for Mine Action ANAMA, stated that “Iskander-M” missiles were used during the war in Artsakh, not Iskander-E missiles (which is the model owned by Armenia).

He added “the wreck was at a distance of 780 meters from each other. A recent investigation showed that in the direction of the city of Shushi, the missile was fired from the installation of the Iskander-M complex.”

Note that only Russia has Iskander-M!
Armenia received the export version of the complexes - "Iskander-E".

Okay, we know turks go above and beyond for double, triple manipulations and disinformation so long the Armenian public stays confused. Therefore, why do turks push on Russia for now - what’s on the negotiating table?

Did Russia ever find out why turks deliberately blew off helicopter killing 2 servicemen?

Hot battles, shelling, destroyed houses, internally displaced citizens, victims, war crimes, and most importantly heroes like Robert Abajyan and Kyaram Sloyan!

CivilNet recalled the four days of the war in April and shared a video footage.

2021-03-31 21:45:39 Governor of Tavush Province Hayk Chobanyan, who ruled out the possibility of transferring the border villages to Azerbaijan, will lose his post tomorrow.

The draft decision is on the Government’s agenda for tomorrow’s meeting. The reason for the dismissal is not specified. It’s more likely that he will take the post of Hakob Arshakyan, Minister of High Technology and Innovation.

Let us remind you that a few days ago Chobanyan confidently stated that while he is the governor of Tavush Province, not a single village will be transferred to Azerbaijan.
