I call on my fans, the sports world, and media partners to respond and help. Mkhitaryan's appeal

Former captain of the Armenian national team, Inter midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan, wrote on his Facebook page.

"120,000 civilians, including 30,000 children, are under military attack in Nagorno-Karabakh. Azerbaijan has resumed war against Nagorno-Karabakh, shelling civilians and civilian infrastructure after 9 months of deliberate blockade, starvation, and denial of humanitarian aid.

As experts say, this is genocide. I call on my fans, the sports world, and media partners to respond and help spread the voice of restoring peace. Children are NOT targets, and 2 children have already been killed and 13 injured."
