‘’Thank to an excellent military operation by the Defense Army of Artsakh, it was possible not only to liberate one of the earlier lost positions, but to save the lives of 19 soldiers who, days before bravely confronted the enemy and instead of withdrawing, hid in a nearby forest, waiting for the counter-attack of our troops.
