Number of mines planted by Armenians in Azerbaijani territories exceeded 1 million

The number of landmines planted by Armenians in the Azerbaijani territories surpasses one million, reads a statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan.

"It is well-known that the accuracy of landmine maps, the existence of which was denied by Armenia following the signing of the Trilateral Statement dated 10 November 2020, but later was submitted as a result of international pressure, is only 25%. We have frequently pointed out that the provided maps are ineffective, incomplete, and do not accurately portray the reality on the ground. Although these maps show that only 400,000 landmines were reportedly deployed in our territories, the actual number of landmines surpasses one million.”
