Azerbaijanis have razed to the ground the Armenian churches in Agulis,
Nakhijevan, monument studies expert Samvel Karapetyan told a news
conference.
According to him, for many years, we had received no news about
Armenian cultural heritage in Agulis because unlike Nor Jugha, which
is located close to the Iranian border, Agulis is located deep in
the territory.
“We had doubts that Armenian monuments in Nakhijevan have suffered
the same fate as the Armenian cemetery in Nor Jugha, and our doubts
were confirmed: the churches in Agulis are razed to the ground,”
said the expert.
