One Armenian conscript has been wounded in fighting in Karabakh when -
according to the NKR Defense Army Press Office - an Azeri sabotage
unit attempted to overrun the Armenian positions and move into the
Armenian-controlled territory.
The incident took place at 6:30 am on August 31 in the vicinity of
the village of Chailu in northeastern Karabakh.
"The Armenian servicemen on duty timely noticed the movement of an
enemy special task group and took corresponding action," the report
said, adding that following the Armenian response the Azeri forces
retreated, suffering losses.
It is reported that Karabakh army private Rudik Manaseryan, 19, was
wounded in the exchange of fire. He was taken to Stepanakert hospital.
Touching upon the reports of Azeri mass media that the Armenian side
has concurred three losses, Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan said: "Once
again Azerbaijan showed its true face. However, the enemy retreated,
suffering losses as a result of the corresponding actions taken by
the Armenian side. As usual, they disseminate false information."
According to Seyran Ohanyan, the Armenian Army properly fulfils its
main task. Reforms are being implemented in the Armenian Army, great
role is attributed to international experience. Moreover, we have
units, which are no worse than the units of the Soviet Army and can
compete with different armies of the world," Seyran Ohanyan declared.
Touching upon the protocol on the extension of the term of the Russian
military base in Armenia for 49 years, the Defense Minister said:
"The extension of the term of agreement was extremely important since
we consolidate our strategic partnership. It also provides us with
an opportunity to develop our capacities within a joint contingent
with Russia, analyze our security atmosphere and resist the existing
challenges."
