Chingiz Mustafayev (born August 29, 1960 – died June 15, 1992) was the man behind the video camera, who filmed scenes of atrocity in the Khojaly Massacre of 1992. In order to document the massacre, Mustafayev traveled via an army helicopter which at most time came under heavy enemy fire. He was able to film that which gave evidence to the massacre which showed hundreds of dead bodies strewn across snow-covered fields of Khojaly. The film at times were coupled with commentaries by a sobbing and emotional Mustafayev as he described the carnage he had seen as he filmed.

Azerbaijani's official press tried to cover up the fact that the town had been wiped out[citation needed] by Armenian forces. Human Rights Watch and the Russian Memorial society attributed the carnage to Armenian forces.

According to his brother Vahid Mustafayev, during the span of eight months Mustafayev had shot and is credited for about 18 documentaries about the war in Karabakh, leaving behind substantial historical documentation.

On 15 June 1992, Mustafayev while filming an exchange of fire between Azerbaijani and Armenian forces near the village of Nakhichevanik was felled by mortar fire According to his brother Vahid Mustafayev, he was fatally wounded when a shell exploded right beside him and shrapnel from the shell severed one of his major arteries. By the time Mustafayev was airlifted to the hospital, he had died of blood loss. His last moments were captured on his own camera.
