Nagorno-Karabakh accuses Azerbaijan of shelling attacks
Today, the Nagorno-Karabakh Defence Army has reported that the Azerbaijani troops violated the ceasefire several times.
At the same time, according to the Nagorno-Karabakh Defence Army, the situation on the line of contact is relatively stable, “despite the ongoing tension.” “Russian peacekeepers continue steps to stabilize the situation,” the Nagorno-Karabakh Defence Army reports.
The “Caucasian Knot” has reported that on August 8, Azerbaijan complained about ten shelling attacks on positions per day. According to Baku, the positions of the Azerbaijani troops in the Kelbadjar and Lachin Districts were shelled six times from the positions of the Armenian militaries. Furthermore, the positions of the Azerbaijani troops in the Kelbadjar, Goranboy, and Fuzuli Districts were shelled four times. Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh denied Baku’s information.
The situation in the Karabakh conflict zone escalated on August 3. After an Azerbaijani military got a fatal wound at the border, Azerbaijan launched the operation “Retribution” in Karabakh, during which two militaries were killed and 19 people were wounded. Meanwhile, the Azerbaijani troops occupied the heights of Sarybaba in the Shusha District and Girkhgyz in the Khodjaly District. On August 6, Baku announced the capture of another strategic height. According to analysts, that gave Azerbaijan a tactical advantage.
