PanARMENIAN.Net - 270 incidents of ceasefire violation were reported
over the past week at the contact line between the Nagorno Karabakh
and Azerbaijani armed forces. Azerbaijan fired about 1500 shots using
machineguns and sniper rifles.
Continuous violations and official Baku's disrespect for the efforts
of international community towards peaceful settlement of the conflict
forced Artsakh defense army into showing harsh response.
Following the killing of 2 Armenian soldiers over the Azeri ceasefire
violation, NKR defense army resorted to punitive measures resulting
in the death and injury of up to 7 Azeri servicemen.
In an attempt to avoid political and social protests, official Baku
is refraining from publicizing the facts above. However, according
to reliable forces, Azerbaijani authorities demand Defense Ministry
for explanations on recent incidents at contacts line.
In the morning of November 20, at 8.50 am local time, NKR defense army
soldier Mihran Margaryan, born 1992 was killed over Azeri ceasefire
violation, while on military duty.

to more stringent actions in future," NKR defense army stated.
