The Artsakh Defense Army has denied shooting at Azerbaijani positions. The Azerbaijani Defense Ministry earlier issued a statement, claiming that units of the Defense Army had opened fire on the Azerbaijani positions located near the villages of Shosh and Taghavard on February 20 and 21.

“The ceasefire in the mentioned area was actually violated by the Azerbaijani units, which opened irregular fire in the direction of the Defense Army positions,” Artsakh’s Ministry of Defense said.

No casualties were reported.  

The command of the Russian peacekeeping contingent has been informed about the violation of the ceasefire by the Azerbaijani units.

“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
