Armenia breaks ceasefire with Azerbaijan 95 times
Trend:
Over the past 24 hours, Armenia’s armed forces have 95 times violated the ceasefire along the line of contact between Azerbaijani and Armenian troops, the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry said April 25.
The Armenian armed forces were using heavy machine guns.
The conflict between the two South
Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial
claims against Azerbaijan. As a result of the ensuing war, in 1992
Armenian armed forces occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan, including
the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts.
The 1994 ceasefire agreement was followed by peace negotiations. Armenia has not yet implemented four UN Security Council resolutions on withdrawal of its armed forces from the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.
