The Office of the President of Artsakh reports:
“Since 19 September, the Republic of Azerbaijan launched a large-scale offensive along the line of contact with the Republic of Artsakh, along with massive artillery and air strikes.
The analysis of the actions of the Armed Forces of Azerbaijan shows that the task of dividing Artsakh and causing irreparable damage to its vitality is set. During two days of stubborn battles, the units of the Artsakh Armed Forces heroically defended against the enemy, which was several times superior in manpower and military equipment, causing them the greatest losses.
Unfortunately, the Artsakh side also has losses and wounded, and in some areas the enemy managed to break into the military positions of the Defense Forces, take control of a number of heights and strategic road junctions.
In the current situation, the actions of the international community in the direction of stopping the war and resolving the situation are insufficient.
Taking into account all this; the authorities of the Republic of Artsakh accept the proposal of the Command of the Russian Peacekeeping Mission regarding the cessation of fire.
