The situation at the Armenian-Azerbaijani border in both Tavush and Nakhijevan sections is calm, defense ministry spokesman Artsrun Hovhannisyan told ARMENPRESS.

Hovhannisyan said Azerbaijan opened sporadic gunfire at the Ijevan-Noyemberyan road on July 19, with no victims. Asked if there is border tension, he replied: “No, few random shots were heard. The situation is normal, calm”.
