Azerbaijani troops fire at Armenian positions in fresh ceasefire violation
The Armenian Defense Ministry has denied Azerbaijan’s accusations of cross-border shooting. Also, it says Azerbaijan itself violated the ceasefire in the border area last night.
“The statement of the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry alleging that the Armenian army units opened fire on Azerbaijani combat positions deployed in the eastern section of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border on the night of 15-16 July is disinformation,” the ministry said in a statement.
Meanwhile, the Azerbaijani military fired at Armenian positions in the border area, also using large-caliber firearms.
“The Azerbaijani fire was suppressed after Armenia’s retaliatory measures,” the statement said.
