Artsakh’s Defense Ministry has dismissed the reports of the Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan, claiming that serviceman of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces was killed by a shot fired by the Defense Army units on October 14 at around 18:15.

The Ministry said the reports are false and have nothing to do with reality.

“During the mentioned period, sounds of heated argument and fighting were heard by the Defense Army forces In the eastern part of the Artsakh Republic (Norshen village), which were followed by shots,” the Ministry said.

Expecting an impartial investigation, the Azerbaijani Defense Army command states that it is abiding by the agreements reached and strictly observing the ceasefire regime.

“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
