Artsrun Hovhannisyan, Press Secretary of the RA Ministry of Defense writes in his Facebook Page.
“The armed forces continue military operations on the contact line of NKR – Azerbijan. During the day, the sides in addition to the armament used before, began to apply the arsenals that are accumulated in their arsenals, among them TOC 1 flamethrowers, drones and other modern technique. But as a result, even in such circumstances the Azerbaijani side failed to change the development on the front and turn the process their benefit.
On the contrary, in all directions the defense Army units successfully demonstrated their skills in positional battles, and in addition as a result of the competent and purposeful activities during the day they destroyed different military technique of the enemy, among them 5 tanks, 3 drones, different military devices and dozens of manpower of the enemy.
Perhaps this success caused the unbalanced statement issued by the military leadership of Azerbaijan, according to which they threatened to use force against the peaceful citizens of NKR and in particulat with threats to bombard the Capital City Stepanakert.
NKR Defense Ministry warns personally Hasanov and his “supreme” that response will be disproportionate in case of such developments and more painful.”
