On the morning of June 5, from 6 to 10 p.m., the Azerbaijani military forces shelled the bordering village of Movses, district of Berd, with large-caliber guns. Village headman Ludwig Aperyan said that they had taken aim at defense positions, but they mainly fired at the houses of the village. “It is dark already, the damages from the shelling will be visible in the morning,” said the headman of Movses village. On June 5, the shelling of the bordering Aygepar with large-caliber machine guns had started at 4 p.m. and it still continued at 10 p.m. “After the news about the shelling of the villages was written on the internet, the Azerbaijani shelling of these villages has become more often. Journalists have written an article recently that the Azerbaijani fire at the village of Nerkin Karmiraghbyur penetrated a passport in the pocket of a suit, which was hung. The next day after that news had been spread on the internet Nerkin Karmiraghbyur was massively shelled. And the Azerbaijanis don’t write anything on the internet about the firing at their villages. When the representatives of the international organizations heard of the bombardment of the villages in the
district of Berd, they have been afraid to visit here, to carry out aid projects henceforth,” Andranik Aydinyan, the headman of Aygepar village, said.
