An OSCE mission today held regular monitoring on the contact line
between the Nagornyy Karabakh and Azerbaijani armed forces northwest
of the village of Kuropatkino in Martuni District of the Nagornyy
Karabakh Republic [NKR].

The field assistants to the personal representative of the OSCE
chairman-in-office, Miroslav Vymetal (Czech Republic), Peter Kay
(Britain) and Torsten Ahren (Sweden), carried out monitoring from the
positions of the NKR Defence Army, the press service of the NKR
Foreign Ministry reported. Andrzej Kasprzyk, the personal
representative of the OSCE chairman-in-office, led the monitoring
group on the Azerbaijani side.

The Azerbaijani side, unlike the Karabakh side, did not take members
of the monitoring mission to its front-line positions. A single shot
was registered from the Azerbaijani side 1 km away from the monitored
area.

Representatives of the NKR Defence Ministry and Foreign Ministry also
accompanied the mission.
