The Garadaghli tragedy will forever remain in memory as a grave crime against humanity, Azerbaijan’s Foreign Ministry said on Tuesday.

The ministry shared a post commemorating the 34th anniversary of the Garadaghli massacre.  

“This bloody crime, committed against the civilian population of Azerbaijan by Armenian armed groups, is one of the most tragic and painful pages in our history,” it noted.

“Carried out with particular brutality, the massacre took the lives of 67 people, including women and children, who were mercilessly killed.”

The ministry added: “The Garadaghli tragedy will forever remain in memory as a grave crime against humanity, and it is our moral duty to ensure that such tragedies are never forgotten. May Allah have mercy on all our martyrs!”
