Ik heb het originele artikel van Russische journalist Ilya Azar gevonden.
Hij interviewt een vrijwilliger voor Armenië. Hij zegt dat hij een wandelend lijk is. Hij zegt dat hij met machinegeweren tegen drones en artillerie vecht. Hij heeft te voet voorraden naar soldaten vervoerd. Dit bevestigt dat Armeniërs geen vrachtwagens of gepantserde voertuigen meer kunnen gebruiken. Hoe gaan ze deze oorlog nog winnen?
https://novayagazeta.ru/a(...)oyna-u-yuzhnyh-vorotI want to and already open my mouth to agree, but the poet is called on the bus, and he leaves without even introducing himself. The volunteers who stopped to help bring the rope and go down to the jeep - it seems like there is still one person left in it. While his friends are working, volunteer Artur Hovhannisyan tells me what is happening on the southern front, where he has just left to bury his friends in his native Gyumri. Or maybe because he himself does not want to die.
“They [the Armenian authorities] are deceiving people! They sent 18-year-old soldiers to the front with one machine gun. [They say] "Sorry, no bullets, sorry, no tanks." Bullet-proof vests - killed completely. There is nothing there. "Feeder" arrives, unloads everything on the road, and if you want to eat, then walk 4 kilometers under the "Grady". We eight friends went for four days at night and dragged grub on ourselves for all four lines, ”Arthur chatters, he is very excited. He has flip flops on his feet, a black hat on his head, and a grenade sticking out in the buttonhole of his jacket.
An elderly woman, who got out of the car even earlier, runs up to Arthur, angrily asks him to help pull the car out, but he points to his flip flops: "See, I'm in sneakers, go."
- How did you get to the front? - I specify.
- I just arrived, no documents even, got a machine gun and go. I had two brothers there, and I went after them and stayed. I am from Gyumri, but a French citizen, I came from there two weeks ago. This is not a war with a man, this is a war against planes, against the Grad.
- And it seems that the Azerbaijani infantry also comes periodically?
- When we have already passed 4–5 lines, they move forward two lines. I looked through binoculars, there are not Azerbaijanis, but mercenaries, Syrian roosters, who have no god except 2,000 euros. They cut our dead guys' heads, mocked
Let everyone know that this is a real genocide. This is not a war! This is the second Armenian genocide!
According to Arthur, he fought on the southern front, in the Dzhabrail area. Azerbaijanis have already claimed several times that they captured Jabrayil, even showed a video of raising their flag, but the Armenians claim that this is a fake. Apparently, the city has already changed hands several times, but in general there is practically no objective information about what is happening at the front. If Azerbaijan has moved beyond the borders of the NKR, then it is not too much
“Yesterday we were in Hadrut (a city in Karabakh, which is heavily bombed all the days of the war. - IA), officers came and said that the commander would be tried. At night he gathered all the youth and told them to leave [from Dzhabrail]. He disobeyed orders from above. He himself said: "These are boys, they have been called up for ten days, and they have already been given a gun." What are you doing? Where will this child go? Okay, I did the service, and even then this service will not help there. Automatic machine against aviation and artillery. I'm like a living corpse there, ”says Arthur. He is clearly very dissatisfied with the NKR military command and the Armenian authorities.
Another volunteer, Arthur's friend, comes up to us and confirms: “Everything is very bad there. We came from the first line at Dzhabrail. "
- The authorities report that the loss is about 200 people. Does this sound like the truth? I ask. The Armenian authorities publish the personal data of the dead soldiers, but at the same time they report that they have already killed more than 3 thousand enemy soldiers, therefore, even with the amendment that it is objectively more difficult to attack, the numbers are questionable.
- 200 people died in front of my eyes, on our line! And in total there are thousands of dead! - Arthur is sure.
