2783 Azerbaijani soldiers killed in battles in Karabakh – Abroad – News

“2,783 soldiers of the Azerbaijani armed forces have been killed. The process of verifying the identity of 103 victims by DNA analysis is currently underway,” the ministry said in a statement.

More than 100 Azerbaijani soldiers are believed to be missing. Their search continues.

“There are currently 1,245 soldiers in treatment,” the ministry said.

Yerevan previously said that 2317 Armenian soldiers had fallen during the last escalation of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict from September 27 to November 9.

At least 93 Azerbaijani and 50 Armenian civilians have died in the conflict.

Syrian militants brought to the Karabakh conflict zone by Turkey, an ally of Azerbaijan, also took part in the fighting on the Azerbaijani side of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

A total of 2,580 Syrian militants were sent to Azerbaijan, 293 of whom were killed, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) said on Wednesday.

On November 9, Armenia and Azerbaijan, with the support of Russia, reached an agreement on a ceasefire in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

The agreement stipulates that Armenians will lose part of the main territory of Nagorno-Karabakh, as well as all areas of the security buffer zone that have been under Armenian control since the 1990s.

The future political status of Nagorno-Karabakh remains uncertain even after the agreement is reached.

So far, the independence of Nagorno-Karabakh has not been recognized by any country, not even by Armenia, which provides all possible support to Nagorno-Karabakh.

On November 26, the French Senate called on the French government to recognize Nagorno-Karabakh as an independent state.

Nagorno-Karabakh, which was part of the Azerbaijani SSR during the Soviet era, has been a “de facto” independent Armenian republic since the early 1990s. Although Azerbaijan has not controlled Nagorno-Karabakh since the collapse of the USSR, it considers the Armenian region to be its territory.
