YEREVAN, OCTOBER 30, ARMENPRESS. The Defense Army of Artsakh will take respective actions deriving from the situation if Azerbaijan continues provocations in the line of contact, the Artsakh defense ministry said in a statement, commenting on the increase in ceasefire violations by the Azerbaijani side in the Artsakh line of contact, the ministry told Armenpress.

“In recent days an increase in ceasefire violations by the adversary is noticed in the Artsakh-Azerbaijan line of contact. By again demonstrating an unconstructive position and moreover, ignoring the session of the CIS defense ministers being held in Baku, the Azerbaijani side moves on the path of artificially escalating the situation in the frontline, frequently firing shots from sniper rifles.

The defense ministry of the Republic of Artsakh announces that it adheres to the agreements reached on mitigating the tension between the conflicting sides, but in case of the continuation of provocations by the adversary it will take respective actions deriving from the situation”.
