Cornell's Caucasus Heritage Watch compiled decades of high-resolution satellite imagery to document the complete destruction of Armenian cultural heritage ...

The erasure of the Armenian sites in Nakhchivan is particularly troubling, the researchers say, because Azerbaijan has gone to great lengths to keep their policy of heritage erasure secret. They spent a lot of money on UNESCO trying to brand Azerbaijan as a land of tolerance even as they undertook a systematic program of heritage demolition.” So unlike ISIS, or the Taliban, which made a big spectacle out of their form of heritage destruction, Azerbaijan does not want to be known as a state that sponsors cultural erasure. To identify the locations of the destroyed sites, the researchers turned to scholarly surveys of the region’s architectural history. satellite images from the 1970s and 1980s, Soviet maps from the 1930s to 1990s, and more recent satellite imagery, all of which enabled them to construct a meticulous visual timeline that shows the gradual eradication of cultural heritage sites. In some cases, such as the Saint Tovma Monastery of Agulis, the buildings were replaced by mosques or other civic buildings. The two remaining sites – a small cemetery and a chapel – possibly evaded notice because they were in such poor condition they weren’t recognized as Armenian.

Clashes erupted between Azerbaijani and Armenian troops, Russian news agencies reported early Tuesday, in a resumption of decades-old hostilities linked to.

Russia sent thousands of peacekeepers to the region in 2020 as part of a deal to end six weeks of hostilities between the sides that saw Azerbaijan make significant territorial gains in and around Nagorno-Karabakh. Armenia said that several towns near the border with Azerbaijan, including Jermuk, Goris and Kapan, were being shelled in the early hours of Tuesday, and said it had responded to what it called a “large-scale provocation” by Azerbaijan. Armenia said on Tuesday that at least 49 of its soldiers had been killed in clashes along the border with Azerbaijan after a sharp escalation in hostilities that prompted big powers to call for restraint.

Armenian prime minister Nikol Pashinyan said in Parliament that Azerbaijani forces attacked about half a dozen points, the news agency Interfax reported.

Azerbaijan reclaimed broad swaths of Nagorno-Karabakh in a six-week war in 2020 that killed more than 6,600 people and ended with a Russia-brokered peace deal. Azerbaijan charged that its forces returned fire in response to “large-scale provocations” by the Armenian military, claiming that the Armenian troops planted mines and repeatedly fired on Azerbaijani military positions, resulting in unspecified casualties and damage to military infrastructure. Azerbaijan and Armenia have been locked in a decades-old conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh, which is part of Azerbaijan but has been under the control of ethnic Armenian forces backed by Armenia since a separatist war there ended in 1994.

Meanwhile, European Council President Charles Michel in recent months has sought to play peacemaker between Baku and Yerevan, hosting meetings between the two sides. The Russian Foreign Ministry later said it was “extremely concerned” about the developments and urged parties to adhere to a cease-fire agreement brokered by Moscow. Though Europe is uncommonly united on the need to curb or cut energy imports from Russia, von der Leyen’s comment — and the deal — raised eyebrows. “As we have long made clear, there can be no military solution to the conflict,” the U.S. “We urge an end to any military hostilities immediately.” The truce, which was supposed to take effect at 9 a.m. within a few years.

Armenia's representative at the grouping emphasized during the meeting that Yerevan expects its allies to take "efficient collective steps to ensure security, territorial integrity and sovereignty of Armenia." He squarely rejected the Azerbaijani claim that it was responding to Armenian provocations. Azerbaijan's Aliyev held a meeting with military officials to discuss the situation. Turkey, an ally of Azerbaijan, also placed the blame for the violence on Armenia.

El primer ministro de Armenia asegura que 49 de sus soldados murieron en los enfrentamientos más violentos con Azerbaiyán desde 2020.

De acuerdo a las fronteras internacionales reconocidas, esta región es parte de Azerbaiyán, aunque se encuentra habitada por armenios. Azerbaiyán, por su parte, dice que sus posiciones militares fueron atacadas primero. Se cree que los combates del lunes por la noche son los peores desde el conflicto de 2020, en el que miles de personas murieron. Esta división cultural es también política y religiosa. En el corazón de la disputa se encuentra la región de Nagorno-Karabaj. Decenas de soldados han muerto en los enfrentamientos más recientes en la frontera entre los países vecinos Armenia y Azerbaiyán.

Azerbaiyán recuperó el control de gran parte del territorio en 2020, durante una guerra de seis semanas que dejó más de 6.600 muertos y terminó con un acuerdo de paz negociado por Rusia. Según Pashinyan, las acciones azerbaiyanas se produjeron tras las recientes conversaciones, auspiciadas por la Unión Europea y celebradas en Bruselas, con el presidente del país, Ilham Aliyev, que revelaron lo que describió como una postura inflexible de Bakú. Las hostilidades comenzaron minutos después de la medianoche, cuando las fuerzas azerbaiyanas lanzaron un ataque de artillería y con drones sobre muchas zonas del territorio armenio, según el Ministerio de Defensa armenio.

Los dos países del Cáucaso se acusan de romper el alto el fuego que puso fin a la guerra por el Nagorno Karabaj en 2020.

Parte del viejo establishment de la política armenia, de la importante Diáspora (que supone un crucial sostén económico para el país caucásico) e incluso de las Fuerzas Armadas lo han acusado de traición por considerar que se ha rebajado en las negociaciones con Azerbaiyán y por iniciar contactos con Turquía —principal apoyo militar de Bakú en la región— [para la reapertura de la frontera, cerrada desde 1993](https://elpais.com/internacional/2022-01-14/turquia-y-armenia-celebran-por-primera-vez-en-anos-una-reunion-para-tratar-de-normalizar-sus-relaciones.html).

Lo necesario es que la comunidad internacional presione a Azerbaiyán para que detenga su agresión”, se quejó en declaraciones a EL PAÍS una fuente diplomática armenia que pidió no publicar su nombre. De hecho, en su discurso ante el hemiciclo, Pashinián acusó a Gobierno de Azerbaiyán de buscar una rendición incondicional de Armenia y que firme un tratado de paz en las condiciones dictadas por Bakú. Si bien en los últimos dos años se habían producido constantes choques, tanto alrededor del Nagorno Karabaj como a lo largo de la frontera entre Azerbaiyán y Armenia (con un saldo de más de 240 muertos, según un recuento del International Crisis Group), este es el enfrentamiento de mayor envergadura desde la firma del alto el fuego. Citó como ejemplo, las reclamaciones azerbaiyanas de que Ereván renuncie completamente al reconocimiento o protección de los armenios que aún quedan en el pequeño enclave del Nagorno Karabaj fuera del control azerbaiyano (bajo el paraguas de una fuerza de interposición rusa) y de que se establezca un corredor a través de territorio armenio que permita unir Azerbaiyán a su enclave de Najicheván. Por su parte, el ministro turco de Asuntos Exteriores, Mevlüt Çavusoglu, aseguró que había discutido con su homólogo azerbaiyano acerca de “las provocaciones armenias” en la frontera y pidió a Ereván que se centrase en las negociaciones de paz con su vecino. Tanto la Unión Europea como Estados Unidos y Rusia llamaron al cese inmediato de los combates de un conflicto que tiene una importante dimensión internacional. El recrudecimiento del pulso que desde hace décadas mantienen Armenia y Azerbaiyán a cuenta de la región en disputa de Nagorno Karabaj ha dejado casi un centenar de muertos desde la medianoche del lunes al martes. Al mediodía peninsular, el medio armenio Civilnet informaba de que la artillería azerbaiyana continuaba golpeando las localidades armenias de Goris y Vardenis, a 8 y 20 kilómetros de la frontera con Azerbaiyán, respectivamente, y que tres civiles habían resultado heridos, de los cuales uno se halla en situación crítica. “La intensidad de los combates ha disminuido, pero los ataques de Azerbaiyán continúan en un par de direcciones”, dijo Pashinián. Fuentes armenias, en cambio, acusan a Azerbaiyán de llevar más de una semana “preparando el terreno” con “informaciones falsas” sobre tiroteos y provocaciones a fin de “justificar el bombardeo a gran escala” de una docena de posiciones y localidades en territorio de Armenia.
