Armenian troops breach ceasefire 13 times throughout the day
The Armenian armed units shattered ceasefire with Azerbaijan a total of 13 times throughout the day, Azerbaijan`s Defense Ministry reported.
Armenian armed forces subjected to fire the positions of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces located in Kamarli and Balajafarli villages in Gazakh region.
The ceasefire was also violated in Garakhanbeyli, Ashagi Seyidehmedli villages in Fuzuli region, as well as in nameless hills in Goronboy region.
For over two decades, Azerbaijan and Armenia have been locked in conflict which emerged over Armenia's territorial claims against its South Caucasus neighbor. Since a war in the early 1990s, Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan's territory, including Nagorno-Karabakh and seven surrounding regions.
Two decades of talks mediated by the OSCE MG group have failed to produce a breakthrough, and the renewed hostilities, the worst since the ceasefire deal signed in 1994, were assessed as the result of inactivity of the international community.
