Karabakh rescuers find bodies of 933 militaries

More than 40 Armenian military servicemen killed during the aggravation of the Karabakh conflict have been found in the Fizuli and Djebrail Districts. Since the start of searches, they have found over 930 bodies of militaries, the State Emergency Service (SES) of Nagorno-Karabakh has informed.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that the SES had complained that Azerbaijan did not let rescuers into some conflict zones and was protracting the exchange of bodies.

According to Unan Tadevosyan, the head of the Information and Public Relations Department of Nagorno-Karabakh's SES, since November 16, five rescuer teams have been searching in three directions – Djebrail, Fizuli and Gadrut.

Let us remind you that on December 12, the Nagorno-Karabakh's Ministry of Defence (MoD) published a list of 36 soldiers killed during the hostilities. Thus, the overall death toll among militaries of the unrecognized republic has reached 1815.
