Society fears that mobilization started in the republic after the
recent developments on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border. Even young men
under 30, who have already served in the army, are afraid to go out.
The press secretary of the Armenian defence minister, Seyran
Shakhsuvaryan, denied rumours that are going around the city about the
mobilization. He also denied that dozens had been killed in Karabakh
or on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border.
According to the information we possess, the last skirmish on the
border resulted in 13 Armenian casualties. Seyran Shakhsuvaryan denied
this and said that three soldiers had been killed in the Nagornyy
Karabakh Republic [NKR]. This has already been reported by the NKR
Defence Ministry.
