According to some sources there was a sanctuary here since the 4th century. The cathedral also has a bell tower built in 1858 by a Shushi resident in memory of his relatives and all people living in Ghazanchi. The inscription says, “Glory to God, and may all the souls of dead and alive people be saved; summer 1858”. St Grigoris' relics were kept in St. Ghazanchetsots Cathedral. St. Ghazanchetsots Cathedral was built by Armenians who emigrated from Persian Ghazanchi village to Shushi. This is the reason why the cathedral was called Ghazanchetsots. According to historical sources people built the cathedral thanks to their craft only. They made cauldrons (or ghazan in Armenian) and used earned money to build the church. #YourSupportTeam Locals say that while building the new church they came across one obstacle. They had only one priest serving at the church and the issue was that during a liturgy priest had to receive an absolution from another priest. To solve this the architects found a trick. They built an underground room and designed it in such way that a person could hear his own voice very clearly. Thus, every time before conducting a liturgy priest could receive absolution, hearing his own voice saying, “Let my ears hear what my lips utter”. This unique absolution room has been preserved until today. Holy Savior is surrounded by angels with horns in their hands that symbolize the last resurrection of Bible. When the judgment day comes angels will blow their trumpets and all dead people will resurrect, alive people will die and resurrect again in a minute. The angels are standing on the bell tower as it symbolizes the world's horn that calls all the people to a service. Angels that you see today are newly made since the older ones were destroyed during the Azerbaijani rule. These angles are considered to be the symbols of Shushi. The church was closed after Shushi massacres in 1920. Azerbaijanis used it as a warehouse, and later on as a garage. Right during this period the angels next to the church were destroyed. During the Artsakh Liberation War Azerbaijanis turned the church into Grad complex warehouse and used it for bombing Stepanakert and surrounding area. People of Artsakh believe that the church was guarding them during the war. Here soldiers got their blessing before leaving to the front. #YourSupportTeam Azeri tried to bomb the church and to ruin columns pulling them with iron ropes, but the church was so strong that no machine could destroy it. Before Shushi's liberation the church was ruined, and the dome was destroyed. After Shushi was liberated Holy Savior was completely renovated and is fully operational since 1998. On October 8, 2020, the church was again shelled by the Azerbaijani army. There were women, children and old people in the church at that moment. #YourSupportTeam .

  • Call on International Human Rights Community to Raise Voice Against
    Call on International Human Rights Community to raise voice against atrocities committed by Azerbaijan Despite commitment to solve the conflict around Nagorno-Karabakh in a peaceful manner, on 27 September 2020 Azerbaijan launched a widespread aggression against the Artsakh Republic (the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic). With Turkish military support and incitement[1] – it is well established that Turkish F-16 fighter planes and Turkish military personnel are in Azerbaijan[2] as well as thousands of jihadist terrorist mercenaries recruited by Turkey from Syria and transferred to Azerbaijan, Azerbaijani armed forces targeted densely populated settlements, including such cities as cities Martuni, Martakert, Hadrut, Shushi and the capital Stepanakert. Choice of means and methods of warfare by parties to an armed conflict is not unlimited. Each party to the conflict must take all feasible precautions in the choice of means and methods of warfare with a view to avoiding, and in any event to minimizing, incidental loss of civilian life, injury to civilians and damage to civilian objects. Indiscriminate attacks are prohibited both under treaty and customary international humanitarian law (IHL). As documented by the Ombudspersons of Armenia and Artsakh as well as journalists of numerous international and national media outlets working on the ground, Azerbaijani armed forces deployed weapons of indiscriminative nature as well as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) deliberately targeting the civilian objects and population, Cluster munitions prohibited under IHL were used against civilian objects and the civil population, especially in Stepanakert, also contaminating the area with unexploded ordnance, and posing addition risks for the civil population.[3] More than 670 unexploded ordnance, including bomblets and submunitions, from cluster munitions were found only in Stepanakert and surrounding territories.[4] Azerbaijan armed forces utilized heavy weaponry, such as multiple rocket launchers “Smerch” and “Grad” against the civilian objects and civilians.

  • Yerevan, Armenia October 10, 2020 As the Conflict in the Nagorno
    Yerevan, Armenia October 10, 2020 To stop disinformation surrounding the current conflict with Turkey and Azerbaijan and spread awareness in the international community, Armenia's tech community leaders came together to form the Global Awareness initiative. As the conflict in the Nagorno-Karabakh continues to escalate, more awareness is now being spread by both international media outlets and world leaders. Azerbaijan continues to violate human rights by actively bombing Stepanakert, Nagorno-Karabakh’s capital. This has resulted in many civilian casualties and extensive damage to infrastructure, garnering the attention of the international community. Further updates on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict: ● The Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Armenia reports that before the ​ announcement of the humanitarian ceasefire, Azerbaijan attempted a subversive-intelligence infiltration in the direction of Hadrut. Russian military journalists from WarGonzo report that the adversary is assumed to be part of a ​ ​ foreign army, possibly Turkish Special Forces. The attempt came after Ilham Aliyev's announcement on Oct 9, 2020, about having captured the Hadrut region. However, president Aliyev's statement was immediately officially denied by the Ministry of Defense of Armenia as well as by reporters from WarGonzo, who were physically in the Hadrut area. ● After 11 hours of negotiations between Armenia and Azerbaijan, a humanitarian ceasefire was confirmed to start at 12:00 local time. Leading up to the ceasefire, Azerbaijan ramped up its shelling on Armenian civilian targets. At 12:00 it stopped. According to the Ministry of Defense of Armenia, the ceasefire lasted only about an ​ hour before Azerbaijan launched attacks on the Southern province of Armenia proper, capital Stepanakert of Artsakh, and Hadrut.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to record my profound sympathy for all who suffered – and continue to suffer – as a result of the recent war and my deep gratitude to all whom I met for sharing their experiences and concerns. These include, during my previous visit in November 2020: the Presidents of Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh; the Human Rights Ombudsmen for Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh; members of the National Assembly of Armenia; Zori Balayan and his family, including his son Hayk who had recently returned from the frontline with his injured son; Father Hovhannes and all whom I met at Dadivank; and the refugees in Armenia. I pay special tribute to Vardan Tadevosyan, along with his inspirational staff at Stepanakert’s Rehabilitation Centre, who continue to co-ordinate the treatment of some of the most vulnerable members of their community from Yerevan and Stepanakert. Their actions stand as a beacon of hope in the midst of indescribable suffering. I also wish to express my profound gratitude to Artemis Gregorian for her phenomenal support for the work of my small NGO Humanitarian Aid Relief Trust, together with arrangements for many visits. She is rightly recognised as a Heroine of Artsakh as she stayed there throughout all the years of the previous war and has remained since then making an essential contribution to the community.

The opinions expressed in our published works are those of the author(s) and do not reflect the opinions of World Federalist Movement/Institute for Global Policy. YEREVAN, 2021 Introduction The first day of the ceasefire agreement, November 10, 2020, stopped the 44-day aggression of Turkey-Azerbaijan alliance against the unrecognized, small Republic of Nagorno Karabakh. A young woman journalist from Nagorno Karabakh wrote on her Facebook page: “I went to kiss the walls of my Amaras1 monastery, as I know I will never see it again.” That first day of peace, many people drove to visit the Dadivank2 monastery for the last time, to bid farewell to the spiritual treasure that was an inseparable part of their historic, centuries-old identity as Armenians of Nagorno Karabakh. People were confident that in only a few days, they would no longer be able to visit any of their national treasures so dear to their hearts—treasures of intellectual history that they grew up with. The videos broadcast and shared by Azeri soldiers over the internet showed them standing on the Green Church3, taking off the cross, and destroying the bell tower. It left the local Armenian population with very little hope for the preservation of the sites. The newly drawn map had handed over to Azerbaijan the control of these national treasures, dear to their hearts and part of their geographic landscape of historical monuments. As is true for all world nations, the lives of Armenians can’t be separated from their intellectual, cultural heritage.
