Cluster munition used on Stepanakert, Republic of Artsakh

submitted by eric3579

From YouTube description..

This clip shows the explosion of primary bomblets and delayed explosion of further bomblets. The surroundings look like a typical residential area. Armenia and Azerbaijan both stockpiled and deployed cluster munitions.

Stepanakert, also called Khankendi and originally Vararakn, is the capital and the largest city of the de facto Republic of Artsakh. As of 2015, the population of Stepanakert is 55,200.

A video is posted in the comments to help explain the conflict.

An explanation of the conflict. Starts at 44 sec.

"Some damned fool thing in the Balkans."

Armenia, currently on the losing side of this idiotic pissing contest, is trying to negotiate a truce. Azerbaijan has absolutely NO reason to stop, however. Turkey's getting involved, Russia's trying to figure out how to work this to their advantage and Israel is trying to sell more arms after this current "download the demo" of their export munitions.

How the fuck Artsakh ended up in the middle of all this (not speaking geographically, obviously, as it is EXACTLY in the middle of all this) is somewhat beyond me.

Oh they are not trying. This is 100% Putin's shenanigans.

Russia's trying to figure out how to work this to their advantage

"little green men" appear. Annexation? Nooo it's temporary assistance.

Oh they are not trying. This is 100% Putin's shenanigans.

That's a war crime, no?

Neither Armenia nor Azerbaijan signed up for the ban on cluster munitions.

Armenia is part of Geneva Protocol, but not Azerbaijan.
