Houses in Nagorno-Karabakh villages, which are expected to return to Azerbaijan’s control tomorrow, were set on fire today when residents set them ablaze before fleeing the area and fleeing to Armenia, according to an AFP reporter.

“It is the last day, tomorrow the Azeri soldiers will be there,” said a soldier in the village of Charaktar in the Chalbachar area, which will be delivered to Baku.

In this town alone, which marks the border with the neighboring Martakert area, which will remain under Armenian control, at least 6 houses were burned this morning. Flames billowed out the windows as gray smoke billowed into the sky over the area valley.

“It’s my house, I can’t leave it to the Turks,” as Armenians often describe Azeris, explained the owner of one of the houses, as he threw flammable materials and lighters into which he had poured gasoline in an attempt to set fire to floor of the old living room, in a completely empty house.

“It just came to our attention then.” But when they started to dismantle the hydroelectric plant, we understood. “” Everyone will set their house on fire today; They gave us until midnight to leave. “

“We also carry the grave of our parents, the Azeris will want to desecrate them, it is unbearable,” he said.

The day before, at least 12 houses were burned in the same town and its surroundings.

The Moscow-sponsored peace agreement between Yerevan and Baku has ended nearly seven weeks of fierce fighting in Nagorno-Karabakh. Under the agreement, Azerbaijan is reclaiming large territories that have been under Armenian control since the early 1990s.
