Recently, one of the news outlets, Newspress.am, published information, according to which․ “Fights are going on in the direction of Ishkhanasar, Syunik region. About half an hour ago, the enemy launched an attack. There are wounded from the Armenian side who are being evacuated. “
Iravaban.net tried to contact the head of the public relations department of the RA Ministry of Defense, Gevorg Altunyan, but our calls remained unanswered.
Goris Deputy Mayor Irina Yolyan told us that there were no shootings or wounded, but the enemy came forward.
“If 30% of Ishkhanasar was theirs by GPS, 70% was ours, now they feel so privileged that they have crossed the three-kilometer state border and come forward. It is not 100, 200, 300 meters, they came to Verishen settlement by kilometers. I say this according to the information of the last 3 hours, if it happened earlier, I do not know, but in the last hours we are in constant contact with the administrative head,” the deputy said mayor.
In response to our question, how did the enemy cross the RA state border without firing? Irina Yolyan answered․ “This question should be asked to the competent bodies, when we see movement, we see problematic situations, we constantly alert about it, but when the competent bodies, which are responsible for security and the denial comes after the denial, they constantly deny the situation. And one day we still see what is happening.”
