June 4, 2011 - 10:59 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - The situation at the line of contact between Nagorno
Karabakh and Azerbaijani armed forces remains tense.
The Azerbaijani side violated the ceasefire 230 times during the
period of May 29 - June 4, said the press office of the NKR Defense
Army.
`After the Presidents of the OSCE Minsk Group co-chair countries
adopted their statement in Deauville to once again rule out the use of
force as a conflict resolution means, Azerbaijan's ceasefire
violations have become more fierce. Baku launched a propaganda
campaign aiming to accuse the Armenian side of provocative acts,'
press office head, colonel Senor Hasratyan said. `Specifically, on
June 3 Azeri media circulated information that as result of Armenian
firing civilian Elmar Piriyev was allegedly killed.'
`We reiterate that Karabakh army strictly observes the ceasefire along
the entire contact line and did not fire either upon military
positions or civilians,' col. Hasratyan said.
He also informed that 400 shots were fired in the direction of NKR
positions on June 3.
