YEREVAN, November 16. /TASS/. The situation on the Armenian-Azerbaijani eastern border remains strained. Azerbaijani forces are using artillery, armored vehicles and firearms of different calibers, the Armenian Defense Ministry said on Tuesday.

"As of 14:00 (13:00 Moscow time) the situation on the eastern border between Armenia and Azerbaijan remained strained. Azerbaijani forces once again provoked an attack on Armenian positions. The enemy is using artillery, armored vehicles and firearms of different caliber. The Armenian side retaliated proportionately," the Defense Ministry’s statement reads.

The Armenian Defense Ministry argues that "as a result of intensive fire exchanges the enemy has lost some armored vehicles."

On November 14, the Armenian Defense Ministry said that Azerbaijani forces had attempted to carry out an attack on the eastern border. An intensive fire exchange followed. After that the situation stabilized. On November 15, Armenia’s Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said that Azerbaijani forces had intruded into Armenia. Defense Minister Arshak Karapetyan was dismissed. Pashinyan said the latest developments on the border were the reason.

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
