British media ‘The Guardian’ has published an article about the Armenian rocket attack on Azerbaijan’s Ganja city.
“Azerbaijan has said at least 12 people have died after shelling leveled a row of homes in the city of Ganja, with 40 more wounded in a sharp escalation of the conflict with Armenia over the region of Nagorno-Karabakh.
The Azeri prosecutor general’s office said that two shells hit apartment buildings in the country’s second-largest city. There has been no official reaction from Armenia as yet,” the article reads.
Reporters in Ganja saw rows of houses turned to rubble by the shelling, and a rescue team removed black bags containing body parts from the scene. The strike shattered the walls and ripped the roofs off buildings in the surrounding streets.
It was reported that people ran outside in shock and tears, stumbling through muddy alleys in their slippers, some wearing bathroom robes and pajamas.
One witness said that he saw rescuers pull a small child, two women, and four men from the debris in the minutes immediately after the strike.
