The office of the human rights defender of Armenia has already sent two interim reports in English on the Azerbaijani shelling in the Tavush province to the UN Human Rights Council on July 12 and 14. The report also presents data that the Azerbaijani armed forces installed artillery batteries in their own settlements, making the population a target of the Armenian side.
PHOTO OF ARMENIAN GIRL
A photo capturing a child sleeping in a shelter in one of the border communities of Armenia’s Tavush province hit all the social platforms.

WORLD TO SITUATION
Celebrities have taken to their social media to reflect on the current situation at the Armenia-Azerbaijan border.
Beauty mogul Kim Kardashian tweeted: "I stand with my fellow Armenians and pray for those that are involved in recent tensions on the border of the country. I urge for a peaceful resolution for these unprovoked attacks during this already very difficult pandemic."
In turn, an American businessman of Armenian origin Alexis Ohanian took to his Instagram stories to share an Armenian National Committee of America's photo that reads: 'Azerbaijan is starting a regional war amid a global pandemic.'
Armenian football star Henrikh Mkhitaryan also expressed his support to Armenian brave soldiers on his Facebook. "I stand with you," he added.

"The international community should be outraged," Esrailian said.
