YEREVAN, OCTOBER 6, ARMENPRESS. The Armenian Ministry of Defense has denied as disinformation the Azerbaijani reports alleging that Armenian Armed Forces are bombarding Azeri civilian settlements.
“The Azerbaijani side continues to spread fake information alleging that the Armenian Armed Forces are shelling Azerbaijan’s peaceful settlements. The Azerbaijani military-political leadership continues its methods of misleading the international community and their own people. We are hereby announcing that no fire from any type of weapons was opened in the direction of Azerbaijan,” Armenian Ministry of Defense spokesperson Shushan Stepanyan said.
“At the same time, it is obvious that this disinformation by the official Baku is aimed at preparing grounds for restarting combat operations by ignoring the international community’s, namely the [OSCE Minsk Group] Co-Chairing countries’ statements calling for an immediate suspension of hostilities,” she said.
