ArmInfo. Former Artsakh Minister of Culture Sergey Shahverdyan wrote on his Facebook page that six historical neighborhoods in the center of occupied Stepanakert have been literally razed to the ground.
"Images of devastating destruction caused by the Azerbaijani authorities have been published online. Six historic neighborhoods in the center of occupied Stepanakert have been literally razed to the ground. The drama theater building has been left unharmed. For now, at least," he wrote, backing up his words with relevant photographs.
Note that this is not the first neighborhood that Azerbaijan has razed to the ground during these months of occupation. All of this is happening against the backdrop of silent encouragement from the civilized international community. Petrodollars from Baku have overshadowed all values, including those of experts in the field of preserving globally significant cultural heritage.
