"Speaking on arsons in territories occupied by Nagorno Karabakh,
Azerbaijani media reflect everything in distorting mirror," Chairman
of Nagorno Karabakh Republic National Assembly Permanent Commission
on Defense, Security, Law, and Order Rudolf Martirosyan stated to
republican Azat Artsakh newspaper; REGNUM correspondent in Stepanakert
reports.
Republican fire-prevention service is permanently on duty to ensure
that the population could harvest without losses. Republican government
granted additional funds to fire-prevention service to make its more
effective. "We handle the situation; we are aware of all the cases
of local fires an do the utmost to prevent them," Martirosyan stressed.
In his turn, NKR Minister of Territorial Governing and Development of
Industrial Infrastructures Armo Tsaturyan informed that there were
really many fires. However, usually they moved to Nagorno Karabakh
territory from Azerbaijan. "The border zone has been sown with wheat
from the Armenian side. The wildfires have caused damage to owners
of the sown areas. More than 165 hectares of wheat have been consumed
by the wildfire. It is, at least, unserious to say that somebody from
our side intentionally sets ripe wheat on fire," the minister said.
