The death toll of Nagorno-Karabakh soldiers exceeds 1500
The Ministry of Defence (MoD) of Nagorno-Karabakh has published a list of 81 soldiers killed in the conflict zone during the hostilities. The total number of perished soldiers of the Defence Army of Nagorno-Karabakh has made at least 1586.
The updated list contains names of servicemen born in 1953-2002; 15 of them were volunteers.
Let us remind you that on November 16, Nikol Pashinyan, Armenian Prime Minister, stated that hundreds of Armenian soldiers went missing during the autumn battles in Nagorno-Karabakh; about 2400 were declared dead. The authorities deliberately underestimate the number of casualties, Mikael Minasyan, an opposition leader, believes – he insists on the number of 4750.
