Baku. Kamala Guliyevaâ€“APA. Turkish film director Korhan Yurtsever presented his short film â€œKhojaly massacre. Let it be the lastâ€. According to APA, 13-minute film was produced with the support of Azerbaijan-Turkish Historic Research Foundation (ATAF). The film was translated from Turkish into Azerbaijani, English and Russian. Secretary General of the Azerbaijan-Turkish Business Union (ATIB) Rashad Rasullu said the film would be shown on February 25-26 in USA, Russia and Turkey during the events dedicated to Khojaly. The film posters will be spread during the demonstrations and meetings in the different cities. The special post cards will be sent to the US government officials, Senate and House of Representatives. All-Russia Azerbaijanis Congress will show the film in Moscow and other cities of Russia.

Yurtsever said it was his human liability to produce the film about the Khojaly tragedy. â€œWhen I heard that Armenians lanced womb of pregnant woman and took out her baby and then decapitate the baby before the eyes of mother, I doubted that it was committed by the human. It was my liability to make this film. I had to do thatâ€. Yurtsever said he would make full-length film about Khojaly and he already started to write the script.

Turkish actors were involved in the film. ATAF technically supported its producing. Yurtsever and the actors refused to receive honorary. The film will be shown on TV channels of Azerbaijan, Turkey and USA.
