Azerbaijani troops have filmed themselves shooting a wounded Armenian serviceman in the head at close range, as heavy fighting continues in Nagorno-Karabakh.

After murdering the Karabakh soldier, the Azeris are then heard screaming swear words at him.

In the video published by Twitter users, the Azerbaijani is seen using a handgun to kill the Armenian soldier, which means he is neither a private nor a conscript as they do not carry pistols. Also, there was objectively no danger on the battlefield as they would be using rifles instead of handguns.

The Azerbaijanis earlier filmed their torture and brutal murder of two Armenian prisoners of war, one of them a civilian.

Azerbaijan, with help from Turkey and Syrian and Libyan mercenaries deployed by Ankara, started a war against Karabakh (Artsakh) in the morning of September 27. The Armenian side has reported deaths and injuries both among the civilian population and the military. Foreign and local journalists too have been injured in Azeri shelling of towns and villages.
