  They forgot about Agdam http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agdam http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agdam We tried to visit (it's illegal to go there), but for some misterious reasons it was all surrounded by military checkpoints, so we could only pass by. I envy those who managed to get there before.

  There are some slight inaccuracies in the article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oradour-sur-Glane http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oradour-sur-Glane The wikipedia article is unclear on the exact number, but mentions two dozen or so survivors in total, rather than a single one.
