It was a killing field for hundred of unarmed men, women and child victims in open field with no cover. The Human Right was called it "the largest massacred in the conflict" betwen Armenia and Azerbaijan.

Khojaly Massacre
should never be forgotten.The massacre of Feb. 25-26, 1992, is regarded as one
of the bloodiest and most controversial incidents of the war between Armenia and Azerbaijan. It was war crime. It was genocide by Armenian army with Russia supported.
Justice For Khojaly
Unfortunally, the Armenian Government has not been responsible for the genocide. In fact, genocide is an act that vilates international law. Therefore, it is fitting for the international people to seek justice for the citizens of Khojaly.
That's why the Azerbaijan government made a campaign to demand that the Armenian government be responsible. Armenia should be punished according to demand that the Armenian government's action.
This campaign is not only Khojaly's resident, but also to warn the international community. Genocide Occurs in many countries. We can mention Rohingya, Palestine, Uighur and others, but the UN cannot do anything. Violations of law supported by superpowers, are often ignored.
We need to fight against lawbreakers. Especially developing countries must unite and join hands. Don't let the genocide happen again in anywhere.
Indonesia concern about the genocide. Indonesia and Azerbaijan are both muslim countries. The Azerbaijan citizens are muslim. We have good relationship and support each other.
