Azerbaijanis ask Armenia to approach tomb in border village

PanARMENIAN.Net - On June 6 and 7, the Azerbaijani side appealed to the Command of Armenian Armed Forces asking to allow some citizens to approach the graveyard of the southern suburbs of the village of Gyunut, Armenian Defense Ministry spokesman Artsrun Hovhannisyan said in a Facebook post.
