According to Ug News ,In different periods of history, the Azerbaijani people were subjected to genocide by Armenians.The Khojaly genocide that took place thirty-one years ago was a continuation of the genocidal policy committed by Armenians against our people over the past two hundred years with the help of their patrons. The lives of 613 people, including 106 women, 63 children, and 70 elderly people, were killed in this next mass massacre committed against our people by the Armenian nationalists, who were captured by the fictitious myth such as “Great Armenia”. 8 families were completely destroyed in one night. During the tragedy, 487 people were injured, 1275 civilians were captured, 150 people went missing and their fate is still unknown.During the genocide, 56 people were killed with special cruelty, 3 people were burned alive, their heads were skinned, their limbs and heads were cut off, their eyes were gouged out, and pregnant women were pierced with bayonets.Parvin Karimzade, member of Milli Majlis, member of YAP Management Board, said this in his statement to Ug News .He said that the Khojaly genocide was remembered in history by the inconceivable atrocities of the Armenian fascists.

This act of vandalism is a crime directed not only against the people of Azerbaijan, but against all humanity.
According to him, the legal meaning of the concept of “genocide” is determined by the Convention “On the Prevention of the Crime of Genocide and its Punishments” adopted by the UN General Assembly on December 9, 1948 with Resolution No. 260 A (III), and any national, ethnic , means complete or partial destruction of racial or religious groups. What happened in Khojaly also corresponds to this status, people in a limited geographical area were massacred precisely because they were Azerbaijanis.Genocide, damage to material and cultural monuments, environment and other acts are considered international crimes according to the definition of international crime of the International Legal Commission. Thus, the Khojaly genocide is an international crime.
