Aysor, Armenia
May 20 2021

Armenia’s Ministry of Defense has reported about incident in Armenia’s Gegharkunik province's border sector on May 20 with the participation of the Azeri militaries who entered the territory of the Republic of Armenia.

“At approximately 3pm few tens of shots were fired, supposedly into the air, after which the Armenian sub-divisions opened warning fire. The commander of the Azerbaijani servicemen contacted with the commander of the Armenian sub-division, requested to stop the fire, apologized and said that the shots were fired accidentally,” Armenia MOD said in the statement.

The ministry stressed that the Armed Forces of the Republic of Armenia warn that the repetition of suchlike incidents will be viewed as intentional attempt of going to confrontation and will result in relevant actions by the Armenian side.

Emil Lazarian: “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
