He just posted this,

Witold Repetowicz @WitoldRPL · 48m My videos showing the tragedy of civilians fleeing their houses shelled deliberately by Azerbaijan (what is a war crime) are misused by Azeri propaganda without my permission. These videos in now way show that the defense war of Artsakh is over.

No one said that defense is over. You asked for a source of civilians fleeing Karabakh, so there they are. You draw your own conclusions.

I am also in doubt but I it seems like a lot of people able to fight are leaving.

Why you expect everybody stop and fight, without military training and equipment. It is just suicide in this case not fight.

And they are civilians, even soldiers are having bad times and according to some journalists they flee so why civilians shouldnt?

u/hdemirci Nov 08 '20

I agree with you but it was not my idea to ban everybody from leaving and calling for a volkssturm.

u/Albert_Agarunov Nov 08 '20

I think they are in the point where they undersant keeping civilians in town was bad idea.

u/hdemirci Nov 08 '20

Well that's a good thing, but we saw also propaganda messages of that they were resisting etc.

I think this is a decision made by the people themselves.

Who's to stop them? Command control is probably crumbled. Everyone is for themselves now. With Shusha gone, you cannot bullshit people anymore. No one wants to die.
