Azerbaijan counts 28 shelling attacks from Armenian side

During the past 24 hours, positions of the Azerbaijani Army were shelled for 28 times, the country's Ministry of Defence has stated.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on December 6-7, Azerbaijan recorded 25 attacks undertaken from the territory of Nagorno-Karabakh. In its turn, the MoD of Nagorno-Karabakh reported 120 shelling attacks from the Azerbaijani side during the period from November 25 to December 1.

"Within 24 hours, units of the Armenian Armed Forces violated the ceasefire regime in different sections of the frontline for 28 times," the website of the Azerbaijani MoD has states today.

According to the MoD, positions of the Azerbaijani Army were shelled both from Armenia and from the territories that Azerbaijan treats as its occupied ones.

The truce announced by the parties to the Karabakh conflict after its escalation in April 2016 failed to stop the confrontation. For more than two years, the conflict zone is exposed to everyday shelling, says the infographic "Karabakh after the truce: a two-year war" posted on the "Caucasian Knot".
