YEREVAN, AUGUST 5, ARMENPRESS. The Defense Army of the Republic of Artsakh denies the statement of the Azerbaijani defense ministry according to which the Defense Army units violated the ceasefire regime.

The Defense Army said that the situation in the Line of Contact is relatively stable despite the existing tension.

“The statement of the Azerbaijani defense ministry according to which the units of the Defense Army of Artsakh have violated the ceasefire regime 9 times by using sniper rifles and various caliber firearms is another disinformation and has nothing to do with the reality”, the Defense Army said, once again stating that the Azerbaijani side is regularly violating the ceasefire regime.

“Despite the existing tension, the operational situation in the Line of Contact is relatively stable”, it added.

“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
