The Azerbaijani defense propaganda maintains the policy of disseminating disinformation to mislead both the international community and its own people, the NKR Defense Ministry said in a statement.

“In particular, on November 2 the Azeri side spread information in the media and social networks, claiming that the shells fired from Armenian mortars fell on the Chemenli settlement in Aghdam region and other populated areas,” the Ministry said.

The NKR Defense Ministry declares that the information does not correspond to reality. Moreover, it, says, by spreading such statements the rival is trying to justify future provocations.

“The front divisions of the NKR Defense Army strongly respect the commitments and never target the peaceful settlements,” the statement reads.
