Samir Nuriyev: After 44-day war Armenians again planted mines in large area in Karabakh

Almost 100,000 hectares of the liberated territories have already been cleared of mines and unexploded ordnance, head of the Presidential Administration of Azerbaijan Samir Nuriyev said, according to Report.

Speaking at the conference themed "20 Years of Unparalleled Services to Motherland, People and Statehood" in Baku, Samir Nuriyev noted that in the period after the 44-day war, the Armenian armed formations that remained in Karabakh again planted mines in a large territory.

"Certainly, the potential of the Azerbaijani state makes it possible to restore our territories in the shortest possible time and, as President Ilham Aliyev said, to turn these lands into a heaven and bring life back there," he noted.
