A man has bled to death without being able to get medical assistance
as Azeri forces kept shooting along a border section in northeastern
Armenia.
A 26-year-old resident of Aygedzor, so far identified by his first
name Edik, was reportedly wounded as a result of a mine explosion near
the Armenia-Azerbaijan border on Tuesday. Attempts to get medical aid
to him were futile under enemy fire that lasted for several hours,
said local officials as quoted by media.
This is not the first time that civilians are caught in the middle of
cross-border shooting in the Tavush section of the heavily militarized
border. Two villagers from nearby Chinari were killed by Azeri snipers
in 2008; Armenian civilians, including kids in the kindergarten,
also became targets for Azeris during the 2012 Armenian-Azerbaijani
border clashes.
