Two years have passed since  explosion at fuel depot near  Stepanakert, yet  its cause its still a mystery- opposition MP

ArmInfo. On this day, two years ago, during the Azerbaijani aggression against Artsakh and the forced displacement of the entire Armenian population, an  explosion occurred at a fuel depot near Stepanakert, killing more  than 200 people, with approximately the same number missing.

Tigran Abrahamyan, parliament member from the "With Honor" opposition  faction, wrote on his Facebook page, pointing out the ongoing silence  and still-unrevealed details of the explosion, which took place  during the September 2023 aggression. As the opposition member  recalled, various theories were put forward at the time, ranging from  an Azerbaijani strike or terrorist attack to a security breach, but  there has been  no definite explanation or accountability for the  incident.

"Meanwhile, an unprecedented tragedy occurred, hundreds of people  died, but the investigation remains inconclusive, and there are no  answers to the fundamental questions: what really happened, and who  will be held accountable," the MP noted.

Specifically, as Abrahamyan mentioned, Kamo Vardanyan, then commander  of the NKR Defense Army, didn't make  any statement regarding  Azerbaijani aggression, the forced displacement of Artsakh residents,  the explosion at a fuel depot operated by the Defense Army, or the  hundreds of casualties.
