The independent journalist Lindsey Snell again referred to the involvement of mercenaries in the Artsakh war. In her Twitter microblog, Snell, in particular, quoted the words of one of the mercenaries of the Hamza division who moved to Azerbaijan.
"One of the Hamza Division mercenaries who was in Azerbaijan said Turkey lied to them about why they were going, Turkish soldiers weren’t with them, and they were more afraid of the Azerbaijani soldiers, who treated them very badly, than they were of the Armenian soldiers", Lindsey Snell wrote.
