The power and fighting spirit of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces and their strong response to the provocation of Armenian military have caused panic among the Armenian military and civilians living in the occupied territories.

Armenians flee from the occupied territories of Azerbaijan. While some of them decided to stay at homes of their relatives, others were accommodated in the hotels in Khankendi.

The Armenian government, in an effort to prevent population, mostly young people, leaving their homes, has set up posts at the outskirts of the occupied Askeran town. A number of pictures and videos proving these have been disseminated in social networks.

When leaving Askeran, there were clashes between the police and civilians, leading to injury of a large number of civilians.

The social network users say Armenians living in the occupied Askeran town tried to leave the region and move to Khankendi. However, the police tried to prevent their move and as a result, a violent clash occurred between police and residents.

“Komsomolskaya Pravda” earlier informed that Armenians are leaving the settlements in the occupied Nagorno-Karabakh region. Shusha is almost deserted, correspondent Shagen Nazarian told the Russian media, adding that people are afraid and are hiding at home.

Armenians residing in the Armenian-occupied Aghdere region of Azerbaijan also leave their homes, the Armenian bureau of the Radio Liberty reports.

Not only civilians, but also the so-called officials of the unrecognized regime in the Nagorno-Karabakh leave the occupied territories. Armenians report in their social network accounts that the "leader" of the separatist regime of Nagorno-Karabakh, Bako Sahakyan also escaped from Khankendi. He is currently in Armenia.

"Sahakyan escaped to Armenia. He again asks for help. Those who were amusing up to now should have such an end. This is not enough for him. They have created a clan for themselves in Karabakh, and ordinary Armenians are now suffering because of this," the user said.

Since April 2, when tensions on the contact line of the Azerbaijani and Armenian troops aggravated, Azerbaijani troops have destroyed more than 370 enemy soldiers, 12 tanks, 12 armored vehicles and 15 artillery pieces.

The representatives of the separatist regime of Nagorno-Karabakh have recognized that as a result of strikes of the Azerbaijani army, 20 people were killed, 72 were injured, while 26 remain missing.

The Azerbaijani troops' firm response to the provocation of Armenian militaries has led not only to massive losses in the army, but also to diffidence and suicide cases among the Armenian soldiers.

Local media reports that the commanders of the Armenian Armed Forces shot 17 people, who refused to take part in military actions in Nagorno-Karabakh and tried to flee.

The users of the Armenian social networks spread information that two soldiers in the Hadrud region of the occupied Azerbaijani territory have committed suicide on April 5. The dead bodies were found near the monastery "Spitak Khach" in the village of Vang.

The miserable situation of the Armenian army has forced Armenians to start a new campaign in the social networks - to beg money for the soldiers' food, first aid kits, water containers, clothes, sweets, dried fruit, biscuits, tea and others. It is obvious that the Armenian soldiers have nothing to eat, to wear and even to sleep on.

Armenians are the guests in this land. They are not connected with roots to this land and therefore, do not want to die for it. Parents of the Armenian soldiers are tired of getting the coffins of their sons from Karabakh, and soldiers do not want to serve for the corrupt regime of Yerevan and commanders anymore. So they give up, so they run.
