Aghdam mosque used by Armenians to house pigs and cattle: Bob Blackman

Bob Blackman, Member of Parliament at the House of Commons and Head of the UK-Azerbaijan inter-parliamentary friendship group visited Aghdam, Report informs.

"On my visit to Azerbaijan with David Duguid and Elin Suleymanov we visited Aghdam. Here at the iconic mosque which is now being rebuilt after liberation from the Armenian occupation. The mosque was used by Armenians to house pigs and cattle during the occupation," he said on Twitter.

He noted that more than 1 million landmines were laid by Armenian forces before they departed from Karabakh:

"The UK is assisting in land mine clearance programme. Here with David Duguid at one of the sites in Aghdam with some brave individuals clearing the mines by hand. Now brave people are removing them so liberated territories can be used for residential buildings and agriculture.

"At the mine clearance site in Aghdam carrying out a controlled explosion of recovered land mines. There are no maps or diagrams of where mines are located. 300 civilians have lost their lives as a result of stepping on these indiscriminately placed mines," Blackman tweeted.
