Khojaly Genocide – 32 YEARS!

On February 26, 2022, in connection with the 32nd anniversary of the bloody tragedy that entered the history of the 20th century as the Khojaly Genocide, the representatives of companies group of Unico visited the monument erected in memory of the victims of the tragedy in Khatai district of Baku.

32 years have passed since the Khojaly Genocide. On the night of February 25-26, 1992, Armenian armed forces with the participation of the 366th regiment of the Soviet Army, stationed in the city of Khankendi, destroyed the city of Khojaly.

As a result of another massacre committed by Armenian aggressors against the Azerbaijani people, 613 people died, including 106 women, 63 children and 70 elderly people. 1275 civilians were captured, the fate of 150 people is still unknown. As a result of this act of genocide, 8 families were completely destroyed, 132 children lost one of their parents, and 25 children were orphaned.

The Khojaly tragedy is a bloody page of the policy of genocide and ethnic cleansing, carried out against our people by aggressive Armenian nationalists.
