    9 AZERIS BLOWN UP BY MINE IN DIVERSION ATTEMPT: NKR ARMY

    April 8, 2014 - 16:55 AMT

    PanARMENIAN.Net - The Nagorno Karabakh defense army reported an
    Azeri subversion attempt in the south-eastern direction of the line
    of contact in the region of Marjanlu on Monday, April 7, 10.30 pm.

    Having noticed the rival's movement, Artsakh armed units took
    preventive measures and threw back the Azeri saboteurs. During their
    retreat, the subversive group was blown up by a mine, with 3 left
    dead and 6 injured.

    No losses were reported on Karabakh side.

    After the incident, the NKR army continued with their military duty
    taking necessary measures to control the situation at the front line.

    As Azeri media reported earlier, 3 servicemen of the Azerbaijani
    armed forces died, 6 were wounded as a result of the mine explosion
    on Fuzuli front April 7.

    Azeri Defense Minister, Colonel General Zakir Hasanov travelled to
    the site on April, with the investigation initiated.

    On the morning of March 24, Garnik Torosyan, 22, was shot dead while
    on duty at the contact line between Karabakh and Azeri armed forces.

    Nagorno Karabakh army soldier Arman Ghukasyan, 20, died from gunshot
    wounds while on duty on March 19; another serviceman, Varazdat Zakaryan
    was injured.

    In late January, a Nagorno Karabakh army soldier, Karen Galstyan,
    aged 20, sustained a deadly injury in a sniper attack at the northern
    direction of the line of contact with the Azerbaijani armed forces.

    Simultaneous attempts of penetration by the Azerbaijani subversive
    groups were recorded on January 19-20 in the north-eastern (Jraberd)
    and south-eastern (Korgan) directions of the line of contact . The
    front units of the armed forces of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic
    noticed the actions of the Azerbaijani subversive groups and started
    an organized defense in both directions. The rival was thrown back
    suffering palpable human and material losses. Junior Sergeant Armen
    Hovhannisyan died from the wounds he received during the exchange of
    fire in the north-eastern direction.

    Also, as a result of the continuous firing from the Azerbaijani side,
    a 16-year-old girl was wounded in her leg on Jan 23 night in Aygepar
    village of Armenia's Tavush province. Intensive fire was registered
    in the direction of Armenian border villages of Nerkin Karmraghbyur,
    Aygepar, Chinari and Movses, RA Defense Ministry spokesman Artsrun
    Hovhannisyan told PanARMENIAN.Net
