Azerbaijan has filed complaints with the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) against Armenian armed forces' actions in the frontline area, says Cingiz Esgerov, the head of the Azerbaijan presidential human rights department.

"Azerbaijan has forwarded two complaints to the European Court of Human Rights against crimes committed by the Armenian armed forces in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict zone in April. The European Court has accepted these complaints for consideration," Esgerov said at parliamentary hearings.

The complaints were filed on behalf of victims, Esgerov said. "Their communication will begin in the near future. Azerbaijan will take the necessary steps," he said.

More complaints will be sent to the ECHR against the destruction of civilian homes belonging to Azeri citizens by Armenian armed forces, he said.
