STEPANAKERT. – The adversary violated the ceasefire along the line of contact between the Karabakh and Azerbaijani opposing forces about 90 times, from late Friday night to early Saturday morning.

During this time the Azerbaijani armed forces fired more than 1,000 shots toward the Armenian position-holders, and by way of various caliber weapons, the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR/Artsakh) Defense Army informed Armenian News-NEWS.am.

More intense violations were recorded by sniper weapons (about 80 shots). In addition, the adversary fired one shell from a mortar, in an easterly direction of the line of contact.

But the NKR Defense Army vanguard units took necessary measures to quell the “activeness” by the Azerbaijan armed forces, and confidently defended their frontline.

Situation at the line of contact is calm, at this time.
