"During the course of the war, the Azerbaijani forces with active support from Turkey carried out mass crimes, including ethnic cleanings and war crimes against the Artsakh Armenians in explicit violation of international humanitarian law," the minister said, adding four months after the end of military actions Azerbaijan continues violating the international humanitarian law, keeping war prisoners and civilians in captivity.
