Azerbaijan destroys Armenian megalithic monument in Artsakh

Artsakh — Satellite imagery analysis conducted by the Armenian Cultural Landscape organization reveals that Azerbaijan has destroyed the megalithic monument at the Al Lakes, a significant site in Armenia’s megalithic culture.

According to archaeologist Levon Mkrtchyan, the monument was unique in both its size and structure, the Monument Watch reports.

This site fell under Azerbaijani occupation during the 2020 Artsakh war and subsequent military aggression against Armenia in 2021.

Due to its strategic location near the border, the monument was demolished to make way for the construction of a military facility.
