The Azerbaijani diversion group's penetration into Armenia's territory
was presumably preceded by the flights of unmanned aerial vehicles
(UAV). This was stated during the meeting between Armenian MOD and
OSCE Chairman-in-Office field assistants Hristo Hristov and Irji
Aberle. To note, the OSCE conducted a monitoring on Monday at the
line of contact between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
On April 26, the aforesaid diversion group had fired shots at a VAZ
2107, at the Movses-Aygepar road section. There were four Armenian
military servicemen in the vehicle, and three of them had died as
a result.
The OSCE representatives were also informed that a UAV was hovering
above one day before the attack and at 2:45 pm. It was on a
reconnaissance mission.
"The consistency of the UAV's usage and the diversion operations in the
same location are interlinked," MOD representatives noted. The Armenian
side is prepared to submit to the OSCE the drone's flight video.
Hristo Hristov and Irji Aberle visited the scene of the incident
where the Azerbaijani diversion group had attacked. The traces of
blood and the location of the grenade explosion were visible on the
road. First, the Azerbaijanis had fired at the car and subsequently
thrown grenades at it.
"One of the wounded had fallen from the automobile and died on the
road. They killed the other two after throwing grenades at the car,"
the local command unit representative noted.
Also, the OSCE representatives inspected the pelted vehicle, which
is kept at a Military Police garrison.
To note, Azerbaijan has violated the ceasefire close to 4,600 times
since the beginning of this year. Armenian settlements likewise are
intensively fired at. Thirteen such cases are recorded in Tavush
Region alone.
