"kucukucu" near you.

 on Wednesday, Azeris were burying scores of people who died when Armenians

Armenian Soldiers Massacre Hundreds of Fleeing Families:

"The attackers killed most of the soldiers and volunteers defending the
 women and children.  They then turned their guns on the terrified refugees.
 The few survivors later described what happened: 'That's when the real
 slaughter began,' said Azer Hajiev, one of the three soldiers to survive.
 'The Armenians just shot and shot. And they came in and started carving
 up people with their bayonets and knives.'  A 45-year-old man who had been
 shot in the back  said:' We were walking through the brush. Then they opened
 up on us and people were falling all around.  My wife fell, then my child."

Bodies Mark Site of Karabagh Massacre:

"A local truce was enforced to allow the Azerbaijanis to collect their dead
 and any refugees still hiding in the hills and forest.  All are the bodies
 of ordinary people, dressed in the poor, ugly clorhing of workers. Of the 31
 we saw only one policeman and two apparent national volunteers were wearing
 uniform.  All the rest were civilians, including eight women and three small
 children. Two groups, apparently families, had fallen together, the children
 cradled in the women's arms.  Several of them, including one small girl, had
 terrible head injuries: only her face was left. Survivors have told how they
 saw Armenians shooting them point blank as they lay on the ground."

Karabagh Survivors Flee to Mountains:

"Geyush Gassanov, the deputy mayor of Khocaly, said that Armenian troops
 surrounded the town after 7 pm on Tuesday. They were accompanied by six
 or seven light tanks and armoured carriers.  'We thought they would just
 bombard the village, as they had in the past, and then retreat.  But they
 attacked, and our defence force couldn't do anything against their tanks.'
 Other survivors described how they had been fired on repeatedly on their
 way through the mountains to safety. 'For two days we crawled most of the
 way to avoid gunfire,' Sukru Aslanov said.  His daughter was killed in the
 battle for Khodjaly, and his brother and son died on the road."

Corpses Litter Hills in Karabagh:

 they ran...Suddenly there was a thump...[our Azerbaijani helicopter] had
 been fired on from an Armenian anti-aircraft post..."
 Anatol Lieven
 The Times (London), 3/4/92
