The statement spread by the Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan that the units of the Artsakh Republic Defense Army opened fire with firearms at around 02:30 on 13 August in the direction of the Azerbaijani positions in the villages of Yukhari Veysal and Sghnakh, as well as near Shushi, does not correspond to reality.
The Artsakh Defense Army reported.
It is obvious that with such false statements the Azerbaijani side is preparing the ground for further provocative actions.
The units of the Defense Army strictly observe the ceasefire regime and take retaliatory actions only to counter the Azerbaijani provocations.
