Nagorno-Karabakh says two wounded as Azeris fire at ambulance
YEREVAN. April 27
Two people were wounded as Azeri armed forces positioned across the
border from Azerbaijan's disputed enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh opened
fire on Tuesday on an ambulance on Nagorno-Karabakh territory,
"cynically violating" the ceasefire, the enclave's defense ministry
said on Thursday.
"On April 24, the enemy violated the ceasefire on the eastern front
and opened fire on an ambulance. Servicemen Andranik Madoyan and
Ernest Sarkisian were wounded," the ministry told Interfax.
More than 2,000 shots had been fired from Azeri territory "over the
recent period," it said. "This means that the enemy is continuing its
destabilization course along the line of contact between the Armenian
and Azeri forces. Cynically violating the Geneva convention, the Azeri
side opens fire on an ambulance with the red cross," the ministry
said.
The Armenian Defense Ministry said that on Wednesday Azeri forces
opened fire on the village of Doveg in Armenia's Tavush region,
damaging a kindergarten building and a truck parked near it. "For
security reasons, the children and personnel of the kindergarten had
been evacuated. No one was hurt," the ministry said in a statement.
