The Azerbaijani Ministry of Foreign Affairs has appealed to the international community regarding the serious injuries of its two citizens as a result of a mine explosion in Aghdere.

It was noted that as a result of another landmine explosion 2 Azerbaijani citizens were severely injured. Since the 2020-war, 433 people have became a victim of landmine contamination by  Armenia.

This tragedy is a stark reminder of the continued human cost of landmines and the dangers faced, the ministry stressed.

"There is an urgent need for enhanced international support for comprehensive demining efforts. A mine-free future is essential for sustainable peace, development, and human security," the statement reads.
