Grigoryan was rescued from under rubbles of her house in the missile attack and taken to hospital.

She is among hundreds of thousands of Armenians living in Azerbaijan despite the war between the two countries. The Armenian woman condemned the attack on her hometown Ganja and urged Armenians not to fight for the lands that belong to Azerbaijani people in an interview to AZTV channel on October 4. “They should withdraw their troops," she said addressing the Armenian officials.

Azerbaijan’s Barda, Beylagan, Mingachevir cities, Khizi and Absheron region also came under Armenian attack on the same day.

So far, 24 Azerbaijani civilians have been killed and 121 others have been injured since the outbreak of large-scale hostilities on September 27.

It should be noted that attack on Ganja continued on October 5 from the Armenian territory.
