Baku refutes withdrawal of its troops from Karabakh village
The statement of the Russian Ministry of Defence (MoD) about the removal of the units of the Azerbaijani Army from their positions in the village of Farrukh is not true, the Azerbaijani MoD has claimed.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on March 26, the Russian MoD accused Azeri militaries of violating the tripartite agreement on Nagorno-Karabakh. The MoD stated that on March 24 and 25, Azerbaijani militaries entered the responsibility zone of Russian peacemakers and shelled the units of the Karabakh Army from Turkish drones. On March 27, the Russian MoD reported that after the talks, Azerbaijan withdrew its military units from the territory near the Karabakh village of Furukh.
However, on March 27, the Azerbaijani MoD stated that the information about the withdrawal of the units of the Azerbaijani Army from its positions in the village of Farrukh does not correspond to reality, the MoD has stated.
"There have been no changes in the positions of the Azerbaijani Army in the village of Farrukh and on the surrounding heights, which are part of the sovereign territories of our country. The information about the retreat of the Azeri army units from these positions has nothing to do with reality," says the statement posted on the MoD's website.
The Azerbaijani MoD has also refuted the violation of the ceasefire regime by its armed forces, which was announced on March 27 by the Russian MoD. Let us remind you that according to the Russian MoD, as a result of two violations of the ceasefire regime by the Azerbaijani party in the Askeran District, four persons were wounded.
