YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 7, ARMENPRESS.  Military operations continued on November 7 near Shushi, south of Berdzor and Martuni direction, ARMENPRESS reports representative of the MoD Armenia Artsrun Hovhannisyan said in a press conference.

''Particularly, clashes continue in the areas near Shushi, just nearby the city and on the roads day and night. Yesterday I said that we were able to protect Shushi, but as it can be seen the adversary has involved new troops and continues its plans of occupying Shushi. At the moment our forces are stubbornly resisting, inflicting significant losses to the wings, rear and communications of the adversary, but the clashes are heavy and continue up till now'', Hovhannisyan said.

According to him, there are clashes also in the direction of Shushi – Karintak, Lisagor and other places.

Hovhannisyan said that Azerbaijan planned to attack in Martuni direction with armored equipment, but were repelled to their initial positions, losing 1-2 armored vehicles and leaving some bodies in the battlefield.

‘’Clashes occurred also south of Berdzor. The adversary tried to advance for a few times, but they failed, suffered losses. Our units were able to improve positions in that direction’’, Hovhannisyan said, adding that no clashes occurred in the other directions, but artillery was used against both the military positions and settlements.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
