    Azerbaijani Defense Ministry entrapped in its own lie

    The press service of the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry continues
    disseminating information that allegedly the Karabakh side regularly
    violates ceasefire at different parts of the line of contact between
    the NKR and Azerbaijani armed forces. Due to it, the NKR Defense Army
    decided to refer to the matter.

    According to the press service of the NKR Defense Army, it is true
    that cases of ceasefire violation have increased recently at the line
    of contact. "However, it should be clarified which side initiates
    these cases and what kind of measures are taken," reads the statement.

    According to data of the NKR Defense Army, Azerbaijan violated
    ceasefire for 950 times in April 2011, firing 6,500 shots from various
    caliber weapons. It is noteworthy that the Azerbaijani armed forces
    used sniper's weapons, such as SVD, Black Arrow and ISTIGAL rifles
    produced by Turkey. "It is not a secret that along with its own forces
    Azerbaijan uses foreign snipers at the frontline for a good payment,"
    reads the statement of the NKR Defense Army.

    Baku's similar behavior proves that Azerbaijan both violates the
    agreements reached as part of negotiations for the Karabakh conflict
    regulation and cynically disseminates false information.

    As for the situation established in the Azerbaijani armed forces, the
    NKR Defense Army noted that 17 Azerbaijani servicemen were killed
    during the first four months of 2011.

    "The Azerbaijani army violated ceasefire for over 3,200 times in
    January-April 2011, killing 5 NKR servicemen and wounding another
    four. However, according to the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry, 150
    cases of ceasefire violation by the Armenian side were reported during
    the same period. The same source states that 40% of 51 killed and 29
    wounded soldiers in the Azerbaijani army are ascribed to cases of
    ceasefire violation. Judging from the enemy's data, the cases of
    ceasefire violation by Azerbaijan were higher by 20 times compared to
    those by Karabakh, while Azerbaijan suffered huger losses. It is
    difficult to state how much it corresponds to the reality," reads the
    statement of the NKR Defense Army.
