Armenian Ombudsman: There should be no Azerbaijani soldiers, signs or  flags on the roads near the villages of Syunik region and between the  communities.

ArmInfo. The stoning of a civilian car in Syunik by the Azerbaijani military confirms the urgent need to create a security zone. This statement was made by  Armenian human rights defender Arman Tatoyan in response to earlier  media reports that the Azerbaijani military threw stones at a  civilian car with Armenian license plates on the David Bek-Shurnukh  road section of the Kapan-Yerevan interstate highway.

At the same time, he informed that immediately after the publication  of the information, he initiated the work on collecting facts with  the involvement of the Syunik division of the Defender's office.  "As  part of this work, the study of the area between the villages of  David Bek-Shurnukh confirmed that Azerbaijani troops were stationed  at this place.  The information about the incident was confirmed to  the Human Rights Defender by the head of the Kapan community, noting  that it was a civilian car with passengers and an Armenian license  plate, " Tatoyan said.

In this regard, the Armenian Ombudsman expressed his conviction that  the incident is a clear evidence of the existence of a real threat to  the rights of citizens of the Republic of Armenia, enshrined in the  Constitution and recognized at the international level. According to  him, this applies to the rights of people to life, physical and  mental integrity, property and other vital issues.  "The information  about this incident clearly substantiates the concept of the Human  Rights Defender that there should be a security zone in Syunik to  guarantee the rights of Armenian citizens.

There should be no Azerbaijani soldiers, signs or flags on the roads  near the villages of the Syunik region and between the communities.   The Human Rights Defender will send information about this incident  to international structures, as well as include it in the concept of  the security zone, " Tatoyan said in a statement.
