Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev claims that after the Azerbaijani aggression against Nagorno-Karabakh, as a result of which more than 100,000 Armenians were forced to leave their homeland, "certain groups are hiding" there. "After September 20, there were armed provocations in Karabakh. The territory is quite large, mountainous, forested, so we need time to completely clear the territory from gangs," he said.
