Ganja, Azerbaijan, Oct 17 (AFP) Oct 17, 2020
Twelve civilians were killed and more than 40 people injured in an early hours missile strike on Azerbaijan's second city of Ganja, the Azerbaijani prosecutor general's office said.

The strike levelled several rows of buildings in a residential district of the city of 300,000, sharply escalating the conflict between separatist ethnic Armenian forces and Azerbaijan over the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh.
