Another Karabakh soldier killed in Azerbaijani fire
Following the Azerbaijani aggression on Friday evening on Karabakh-Azerbaijan Line of Contact which claimed the lives of three Armenian soldiers, in the morning of June 17, at around 09:40, the Azerbaijani forces undertook a fresh provocation at the northern direction of the contact line, killing another Artsakh Army soldier identified as Narek Tigran Gasparyan (b. 1997), the press service of Artsakh Defense Ministry told Panorama.am.
“The Artsakh Defense Ministry shares the grief of the loss and extends its condolences to the family members, relatives and co-servicemen of the deceased soldier.
The ministry assures that the retaliation to the adversary’s actions inspired by the untargeted statements of the relevant international organizations, will be targeted and non-proportional,” the statement released by the ministry reads.
