Nagorno Karabakh denies Azerbaijani accusations on breaching ceasefire

 12:07,

STEPANAKERT, JUNE 15, ARMENPRESS. Nagorno Karabakh has denied opening fire at Azeri positions. Nagorno Karabakh said Azerbaijan is again “distorting reality” by spreading false accusations.

“The statement released by the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry accusing the Defense Army units of opening fire around 08:45, June 15 at Azerbaijani positions deployed in the occupied territories of Martuni region of the Republic of Artsakh is yet another disinformation,” the Nagorno Karabakh (Republic of Artsakh) Defense Ministry said in a statement. “The Defense Ministry of Azerbaijan, trying to substantiate the fire by its units targeting civilians carrying out agricultural work, is once again distorting reality, once again claiming to have disrupted alleged engineering works in the Martuni region. As reported earlier, the Azerbaijani side opened small arms fire around 09:15 – 11:14, June 14, at civilians conducting agricultural work in the Matchkalashen and Tchartar communities of Martuni region,” the ministry added.

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
