CEASEFIRE BREACHES BY ARMENIA PERSIST
Assa-Irada, Azerbaijan
Sept 1 2005
Baku, August 31, AssA-Irada
The monitoring by OSCE and other international organizations on the
Armenia-Azerbaijan frontline aimed at preventing ceasefire violations
have turned out fruitless. Armenians have stepped up activity in
their positions close to the frontline over the past several months
and continue breaching ceasefire in different areas. In August alone,
one Azeri warrant officer was taken captive by Armenia, another one
died on the frontline, and 2 military men stepped on a landmine,
with one dying on the spot and the other receiving serious injuries.
Armenian armed forces have violated ceasefire over 20 times over the
past month.
They shot at the Azerbaijani positions 8 times in the occupied
Aghdam district, 11 times in Terter, once in Fuzuli and three times
in Khojavand district. The villages located close to the frontline
were repeatedly subjected to shooting as well.
Armenian forces also opened fire from cannons and armored vehicles
in Aghdam. Armenian military men have started large-scale military
training in the district, Azeri experts say.*
