The Russian Regnum Agency, referring to the Azerbaijani mass media,
informed that the Armenian forces launched an offensive on the
Azerbaijani village of Lakadagh in the region of Nakhidjevan,
the population is evacuated from the village. The spokesman for
the ministry of defense Artsrun Hovhannisyan has dismissed this
information.
A few days ago a border incident took place near Nakhidjevan. Two
Armenian soldiers were killed by Azerbaijani snipers. This was an
escalation on the border with Nakhidjevan because the border with
Nakhidjevan has been quiet and only one incident had been reported
there. The Armenian side officially expressed doubts that there are
Turkish mercenaries and units in Nakhidjevan.
There was unofficial information that the Armenian side fired at the
group of snipers who had shot Armenian servicemen driving near the
border in a black SUV and wearing uniforms that had not been seen on
soldiers at the border so far.
This information referred to witnesses, there was no official
confirmation or a source.
It is not ruled out that the Azerbaijani mass media are spreading
rumors on the battle of Lakadagh to check out their victims of the
incident. The Azerbaijanis are trying to make people believe that
the Armenian group had attacked first.
After the incident of Nakhidjevan the Armenian side invited the
personal representative of the OSCE CiO Andrzej Kasprzyk and told him
to take measures to stabilize the border otherwise the consequences
will be severe for the Azerbaijani side.
By the way, recently retired general Arkady Ter-Tadevosyan has
announced about a planned counterattack. And yesterday the CSTO
ministers of defense met in Moscow during which nothing was stated
about the border incident in Nakhidjevan and CSTO did not express
its stance on this, as always.
By the way, the incident of Nakhidjevan which killed two Armenians
took place along with the summit of Turkic states in Turkey and
Ilham Aliyev thanked the president of Kazakhstan, a member of CSTO,
for raising the stipulation on the borders of Armenia in Astana.
