Egyptian newspaper publishes article about Khojaly genocide

The Egypt-based "Al-Masaiyya" newspaper has published an article entitled "International comdemnation on the 21st anniversary of the Khojaly genocide".

The article says as a result of the massacre committed by Armenians in Khojaly in 1992, 613 innocent civilians were killed and 1275 were taken hostage, while the fate of 150 remains unknown.

The article goes on to say that several countries have already condemned the Khojaly massacre. "Commemorative events on the 21st anniversary of the Khojaly tragedy are being held in the United States and some European countries."

The author of the article also draws the attention to a statement of the Azerbaijani Embassy in Egypt, which regards the Khojaly genocide as the most horrible part of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. The author says that the Khojaly massacre committed by Armenian armed forces against Azerbaijanis is one of the most terrible crimes against humanity.
