Nagorno-Karabakh denies Azeri accusations of opening fire, warns of disinformation campaign

YEREVAN, AUGUST 12, ARMENPRESS. The Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) military has denied Azerbaijan’s accusations of opening fire and has warned that Baku is again generating fake news.

“The statement released by the Defense Ministry of Azerbaijan claiming that Defense Army units opened fire around 07:43, on August 12, at Azerbaijani positions deployed in the occupied territories of the Askeran region is yet another disinformation,” the Nagorno-Karabakh Defense Ministry said in a statement.
