In ongoing disinformation campaign, Azerbaijan again falsely accuses Nagorno-Karabakh of opening fire

STEPANAKERT, AUGUST 12, ARMENPRESS. Azerbaijan has again generated fake news, once again falsely accusing the Nagorno-Karabakh Defense Army of breaching the ceasefire, local authorities have announced.

In a statement released Saturday evening, the Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) Defense Ministry denied Azerbaijan’s accusations of opening fire and warned that Baku is spreading disinformation.

“The statement released by the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry claiming that Defense Army units opened fire around 15:00, August 12, at Azerbaijani positions deployed in the occupied territories of the Martuni region is yet another disinformation,” the Nagorno-Karabakh Ministry of Defense said.
