into a disputed breakaway enclave.

mountainous enclave within the Caspian Sea nation of Azerbaijan,
but since the end of a six-year separatist war in 1994 it has been
under the control of Armenian troops and ethnic Armenian forces.
Violations of the 1994 cease-fire have been frequent, and Armenian
authorities said two servicemen from Nagorno-Karabakh were killed
Sunday and Saturday.
Armenia's Defense Ministry spokesman David Karapetian said Monday
the retaliation for the soldiers' deaths will be "disproportionate."
His Azeri counterpart, Teymur Abdullayev, said a shootout at the
border was provoked by Armenians.
