The Armenian side had no wounded or dead servicemen as a result of armed clashes on the night of December 21 on the line of contact between the armed forces of Karabakh and Azerbaijan and on Armenia-Azerbaijan state border, the spokesmen for Defense Ministries of Armenia and Karabakh, Artsrun Hovhannisyan and Senor Hasratyan, told Panorama.am.  They thus refuted the misinformation spread by the Azerbaijani mass media. 

“The Armenian side suffered no losses, this is misinformation,” S. Hasratyan said.

Artsrun Hovhannisyan  said for his part that the information is a fabrication of Azerbaijan. “It is even funny to deny every time statements of Azerbaijani propaganda machine that lives in a reality of its own made-up stories,” he noted.

To remind, during armed clashes on the line of contact between the armed forces of Karabakh and Azerbaijan on the night of December 21 the Azerbaijanis side fired over 1,700 shots at Armenian positions from small arms of various calibers, 60mm (236 shells), 82mm (155 shells) and 120mm mortars (23 shells), RPG-7 (3 shells) and AGS-17 grenade launchers (4 shells), and Turkish-made rocket launcher TR-107 (24 shells), according to the press service of Defense Ministry of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic.  Azerbaijani troops also used 122mm howitzer D-30 (4 shells) in the southern direction of the line of contact (Hadrut).
