Over night from February 25 to 26, 1992, Armenian armed forces with support of the Russian 366th regiment stormed Khojaly town firing by artillery, missiles and tanks. Town was blocked from three sides and people tried to escape to safe direction. But that was a trap. Near Nakhchivanik village the Armenians opened fire on unarmed people. Hundreds of children, women, elderly, frostbitten and weaken in the deep snow and mountain passes became the victims of brutality of Armenians. As a result 613 people were killed, among them: 63 children, 106 women, 70 elderly. It was the most notorious massacre in the Nagorno-Karabakh War.
