РусскийAzerbaijan breaks agreement, escalates situation in Karabakh
Azerbaijani army kept the situation in the Karabakh conflict zone tense on March 19-20, despite previous agreement to refrain from destabilizing the situation on the contact line.
Azeri forces violated the truce in the reporting period, firing over 2400 shots from various caliber firearms, as well as 60- and 82-mm mortars, the Nagorno Karabakh Defense Army says.
Following the attack, Azerbaijan habitually rushed to accuse the Armenian side of increasing the tension.
The Nagorno Karabakh Ministry of Defense reiterated its commitment to strictly follow the agreements reached, at the same time ready to prevent any provocation by the rival, the Ministry said in a statement.
