Footage of destruction of Azerbaijani military equipment and retreat of its subdivision released
The Artsakh Defense Ministry has today released new footage showing the destruction of Azerbaijani military equipment and retreat of its subdivision.
Earlier on Saturday Armenian Defense Ministry spokeswoman Shushan Stepanyan said the Defense Army of Artsakh had successfully thwarted a large-scale offensive launched by the Azerbaijani military.
“In one of the directions, our forces undertook a counterattack. In other flanks heavy defensive battles are going on,” she wrote on Facebook.
In the early morning of September 27, Azerbaijan launched a massive air and artillery attack on the Artsakh military positions and numerous civilian settlements and infrastructure in the country, including capital Stepanakert. Artsakh civilians were told to take shelter.
Both Armenia and Artsakh have declared martial law and a general mobilization.
