As reported earlier, the military-political leadership of the aggressor Armenia continues to commit acts of terrorism against the civilian population, grossly violating the norms and principles of international law.
On October 1st at about 13:00 as a result of heavy artillery shelling of the densely populated areas of Azerbaijan by the occupying country's armed forces Mammadov Murshud Rashid, born in 1966, and his son Samir Mammadov, born in 1996, were killed by shrapnel fragments that hit their house in Hajimammadli village, Aghdam District. Their house was severely damaged.
