Syrian mercenaries offer new testimonies from Karabakh war

Syrian mercenaries recruited by Turkey and Azerbaijan to fight against the Armenians of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) have raised the fact that Baku has not paid them for their "work", over one year after the completion of hostilities.

According to a reportage from the Public TV of Armenia, part of those deployed in the region were used as cannon fodder while those who managed to survive have not been paid.

"We fought with the Turkish state in Karabakh. We have people who were injured and people who were killed. Sultan Suleiman Shah, Abo Amsha stole our rights, and stole the salaries of the injured and dead, and people are dying from hunger," one mercenary is filmed saying.

In the war against Artsakh (Karabakh), Turkey supported Azerbaijan militarily, also by transferring terrorist mercenaries from the Middle East to fight against Karabakh. Armenia was the first to report on Turkey's deployment of thousands of Syrian fighters to Azerbaijan. International media publications followed suit, as did reactions from France, Russia, Iran and Syria. The Nagorno-Karabakh Defense Army has already unveiled footage from the interrogation of two such terrorists captured on the front.
