The contact line of Azerbaijani and Armenian troops near the
Gapanli village of Azerbaijani region of Terter was monitored in
accordance with the mandate of personal representative of the OSCE
Chairman-in-Office today.

The monitors were Gunter Folk and Peter Ki, field assistants of
the personal representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office from
Azerbaijani side and Imre Palatinus and Jiri Aberle, field assistants
of the personal representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office from
the opposite side, internationally recognized territory of Azerbaijan.

The Defense Ministry told the APA the monitoring passed without any
incidence. However, APA’s Garabagh bureau reports Armenians fired
incendiary shell to Gapanli village during the monitoring. The shell
stroke local resident’s house causing fire.

Though the field assistants were notified about this incident, the
OSCE representatives did not monitor it.
