The peaceful protests of Azerbaijanis on the Lachin-Khankendi road against the illicit exploitation of mineral deposits in the Karabakh region of Azerbaijan have been going on for the twenty first straight day, APA's correspondent reports from the scene.
The protest action, which started on December 12, 2022, by the representatives of Azerbaijan's non-governmental organizations and eco-activists, continued throughout the last night.
Despite the freezing weather, the protestors continue to chant various slogans in English and Russian calling for an end to ecocide against Azerbaijan, as well as demanding monitoring of Azerbaijan’s mineral deposits in the areas where the Russian peacekeeping contingent has been temporarily deployed.
The demands of the participants of the action remain unchanged, as they have been since the first day.
Thus, eco-activists and young volunteers chanted slogans such as "Azerbaijan is awake, protects its wealth!", "Azerbaijan is united, it owns its wealth!", "Stop environmental crime!", "Stop eco terror!" etc.
