AZERBAIJAN SAYS SOLDIER KILLED ON ARMENIAN BORDER
Baku Today, Azerbaijan
March 30 2006
Azerbaijan accused Armenia Thursday of breaking a ceasefire and
responsibility for the death of one of its soldiers on their common
border.
"An Azeri soldier was killed during the habitual violations of the
ceasefire by the Armenian side," the defence ministry said in Baku.
"Azerbaijan's positions in the Tovuz region were targeted by Armenian
military units from the Berd area," it said.
The two neighbours, which fought a war in the early 1990s over
Azerbaijan's mostly Armenian-populated enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh,
regularly charge each other with ceasefire violations.
Azerbaijan accused Armenia on March 7 of causing the death of an
Azeri soldier in the Karabakh region. Armenia quickly denied the
charge and responded with counter-accusations that Azeri troops had
killed an Armenian soldier the previous week.
