The Press Service of the Ministry of defense reminds today that on
September 10 Azeri media disseminated information that the divisions
of the Armenian Armed Forces had launched an unsuccessful attack in
the direction of Aghdam, leaving five killed and 3 had wounded. Press
Secretary of the NKR Ministry of Defense, Lieutenant Colonel Senor
Hasratyan came forth with an official statement, refuting the reports
of the Azeri media.
The same day Azerbaijani vesti.az webpage published an interview with
military expert Useir Jafarov. Unable to respond to the question
how one could speak about the concrete number of victims if there
were no bodies, Jafariov said "any attack is accompanied by losses,
irrespective of the fact whether the Armenian side reveals the number
of victims or not."
"This cheap move of the Azeri media shows that the Azerbaijani side
is once again trying to raise the "fighting spirit" of its army,
simultaneously destabilizing the situation," the Armenian Ministry
of Defense said in a statement.
