Which states, in relation to Baganis Ayrum (Google translate):
A few hours later, units of the Armenian National Army shelled the Azerbaijani villages of Yuhara-Askipara, Baganis-Ayrum, Ashaghy-Askipara and Gushchu, wedged into the territory of Armenia. According to eyewitnesses, the shelling involved not only automatic weapons, but also grenade launchers, mortars, hail guns and even surface-to-surface missiles. The first hours of the soldiers successfully repelled the attack. Four helicopters then delivered additional militia units from Yerevan, as a result of which they managed to capture the villages of Yuhara-Askipara and Baganis-Ayrum. The village of Baganis Ayrum was attacked on 26 March. On 20 August, additional military units, tanks, anti-aircraft guns and helicopter gunships were deployed to the site of the fighting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 61.244.128.134 (talk) 05:41, 21 February 2021 (UTC)

- @Addictedtohistory:I would ask you the same. You know well that Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict topics are sensitive, and if such one-sided allegations should be framed based on national sources, that would set a bad precedence. --Addictedtohistory (talk) 23:06, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
- The fact that it's sensitive is exactly why we've used "According to Azerbaijani sources". Sources, which mostly are accounts from the survivors of the massacre. — CuriousGolden (T·C) 09:06, 12 March 2021 (UTC)
