Reportages similar to the aforesaid can be found in Trend, Bakililar, day.az,karabakh-doc.azerall.info, justiceforkhojaly.org, khojaly.org, khojaly.net and other Azerbaijani Web Sites spreading around a new “brand” named “genocide”.
The scene of the valley, bestrewed with dead bodies could shock even the prepared onlooker, that is why such sequences are used in the reportages in the capacity of a shocking element. But the Khojaly events are illustrated with photographs of pogroms in the Balkans which happened in 1999, and can by no means be the evidence of March events of 1918 (genocide № 2), or Khojaly events (genocide № 3).
Besides, the original photograph is a color photograph, but, apparently, the Azerbaijani propagandists realized that black-and-white photos correspond more to “genocides №2 и №3”. Then it was just a technical matter: using an ordinary editorial program, for example, the Photoshop program, to decolorize the photograph is not difficult at all.
The fact, that the original photograph was a color one, is evident because of the color and the background of the photograph, reflecting not only the victims but also the geographical location of the place which doesn’t conform to the landscape near Aghdam-city.
Anyway, there is a direct evidence of falsification here.
