Azerbaijan denied using heavy armor in a battle with neighboring
Armenia that was in progress on Tuesday, and blamed the clash on
Armenia.
"This information is not true," Azeri Defense Ministry spokesman
Ilgar Verdiyev told Interfax, in reference to an Armenian statement
that blamed Azerbaijan for breaking the ceasefire. "Apparently, by
disseminating this information, the Armenian side is again trying to
delude the world community," he said.
Verdiyev also denied a report that Azerbaijan used heavy armor in
the battle and a claim by Armenia that Azerbaijan had gone on to
the offensive.
