Armenians again break ceasefire with Azerbaijan
The Armenian armed forces opened fire at positions of the Azerbaijani armed forces from the positions located nearby occupied villages of Bash Gervend, Shirvanli, Yusifjanli in the Agdam region, Chilaburt in the Terter region, Tapgaragoyunlu of Goranboy region, Horadiz, Ashagi Veyselli, Garakhanbeyli, Ashagi Seyidahmedli of Fizuli region, as well as from nameless heights on Sept.11-12, Azerbaijani Defence Ministry reported.
The Armenians were silenced with a retail fire, the Defense Ministry said.
The precarious cease-fire between Azerbaijan and Armenia was reached after a lengthy war that displaced over a million Azerbaijanis and has been in place between the two South Caucasus countries since 1994. Since the hostilities, Armenian armed forces have occupied over 20 percent of Azerbaijan's internationally recognized territory, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts.
The UN Security Council has adopted four resolutions on Armenia's withdrawal from the Azerbaijani territory, but they have not been enforced to this day.
