The situation on the contact line between Azerbaijan and Armenia has remained tense as the Armenian Armed Forces shattered ceasefire a total of 99 times throughout the day, Azerbaijan`s Defense Ministry said.
The ceasefire was also violated in Talish village of Goranboy region, Chilaburt, Yarimcha villages of Tartar region, Javahirli, Kangarli, Sarijali, Novruzlu, Shuraabad, Shikhlar, Yusifjanli, Marzali, Garagashli villages of Aghdam region, Kuropatkino village of Khojavand region, Gorgan, Garakhanbayli, Ashaghi Seyidahmadli villages of Fuzuli region, Mehdili village of Jabrayil region, as well as in nameless hills of Goranboy, Khojavand, Fuzuli and Jabrayil regions.
The enemy was silenced with a retaliatory fire. In consideration of the operational situation, Azerbaijani armed forces inflicted 101 strikes on Armenian positions.
Armenia occupied over 20 percent of Azerbaijan's internationally recognized territory, including Nagorno-Karabakh and seven adjacent regions, after laying territorial claims against its South Caucasus neighbor that had caused a lengthy war in the early 1990s. Military aggression of Armenia resulted with expelling of over one million Azerbaijanis from native lands.
Armenia has not yet implemented the UN Security Council's four resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.
