Artsakh State Historical Environment Protection Service informs that Azerbaijan is turning the Holy Ascension Church of Berdzor into a mosque.
"Azerbaijan is turning the Holy Ascension Church of Berdzor into a mosque. Expropriation of history, destruction of cultural identity, religious intolerance, falsification," the message says.
The church is located on the southwestern edge of Berdzor, on the rocky slope of the left bank of the Hakari River. In 2022, 47 cultural monuments were evacuated from Berdzor, including khachkars, memorial stones, busts, and springs.
