YEREVAN, AUGUST 14, ARMENPRESS. The Azerbaijani Border Service has released yet another information bait – presenting the movement of combat positions in its own territory to be exclusive achievements, Armenia’s Ministry of Defense spokesperson Artsrun Hovhannisyan said on Facebook.

“Regrettably, the Armenian information arena is immediately reacting to the information bait. I once again remind that movements of positions in the frontline are constant in nature, however unlike Azerbaijan the Armenian side doesn’t usually give public resonance to them because in carrying out combat service shifts our goal  isn’t to necessarily or unnecessarily advertize any action, but to maintain tactical advantage over the adversary and keep it under control. Nevertheless, if the Azerbaijani side continues in this manner they will have surprises waiting for them with displays of tactical-strategic advantages achieved as a result of the professional actions by the Armenian Armed Forces. The military know their job very well and I ask not to disturb them from carrying out their mission,” Hovhannisyan said.
