    Azerbaijani-Armenian front-line remains tense

    Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four
    resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the
    surrounding regions which it occupied in 1992.

    Armenian Armed Forces fired at Azerbaijani Armed Forces from their
    positions near the villages of Shikhlar, Javakhirli of the Agdam
    region, Tapgaragoyunlu of the Goranboy region and from positions at
    the heights of the Fizuli region, the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry
    reported on Saturday.

    Attacks were suppressed by return fire.

    The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
    when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan.

    Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 per cent of Azerbaijan since
    1992, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding
    districts.

    Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The
    co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France and the U.S. - are
    currently holding peace negotiations.

    Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four
    resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the
    surrounding regions.
