More than 1200 shots fired towards Armenian peace keepers

YEREVAN, AUGUST 4, ARMENPRESS: The opponent has violated the cease fire regime at the contact line between Nagorno Karabakh and Azerbaijan over 25o times on August 4. As Nagorno Karabakh Defense Army media and propaganda department informed Armenpress, 1200 shots have been fired from various caliber weapons towards Armenian positions.

Defense Army frontier units mainly abstained from commensurate actions and confidently carried out their military duty through the entire length of combat line.

As Armenpres reported earlier, Defense Minister of the Republic of Armenia Seyran Ohanyan told Armenpress, “OSCE Minsk group co- chair states’ relevant international organizations and international agencies should take overall control of cease-fire violations.It is obvious that the violations and subversion attempts are provoked by Azerbaijani. It is unacceptable that Azerbaijani side, ignoring the strong control exercised by strong states, continue border infiltration attempts. The control should be made tenser”.
