 10:41,

YEREVAN, JUNE 14, ARMENPRESS. Armenian security forces on Thursday morning took countermeasures to thwart the Azerbaijani military’s attempt to advance, authorities said in a statement.

The National Security Service Border Guards said that a group of servicemen of the Azerbaijani Border Guards attempted to advance into the territory of Armenia from the direction of the Hakari Bridge around 08:40, June 15 with the purpose of raising a flag in the territory of Armenia.

“As a result of measures taken by the Armenian side, the attempt by the Azerbaijani servicemen to advance and install a flag in the territory of Armenia was thwarted,” the NSS Border Guards said in a statement.

As of 10:00 the situation was relatively stable.

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
