Azerbaijan’s Dashkasan region has been subjected to artillery fire from the direction of Armenia’s Vardenis region starting from 07.30, the Defence Ministry reported on September 29 in its official website.

Armenian forces used large-calibre weapons, mortars, and artillery to launch a large-scale military attack on the positions of the Azerbaijani army.

Additionally, the ministry said on September 29 that the Azerbaijani Army continues to liberate the occupied Fizuli region from the Armenian armed forces.

"On September 29, starting from the morning hours, the Azerbaijan Army’s offensive operation to liberate Fizuli city continues," the ministry said.
