Azerbaijan makes subversive infiltration attempt toward Armenian positions

STEPANAKERT, MARCH 11, ARTSAKHPRESS: NKR Defense Army spotted the adversary’s sabotage unit and pushed it back to its initial positions. The adversary sustained at least 2 casualties and more wounded. As the press service of the NKR Defense Ministry informed, the Defense Army had no losses during the preventive actions.

On the line of contact of Nagorno Karabakh-Azerbaijani armed forces, on March 10 and early morning of March 11, the adversary fired more than 5500 shots from different caliber weapons : 60 (17 shells) and 82 (47 shells) millimeter mortars, RGP -7 (4 missiles) and AOP -17 (4 shells) grenade launchers.

In addition to the above, the Azerbaijani forces used howitzer type weapons. It is especially noteworthy that last night the adversary had not only bombarded Armenian positions at Akna (Aghdam), but also areas significantly deeper from the front line, which is unprecedented since the 1994 ceasefire. The conclusion of such attacks is the following: the adversary adopted a more unrestrained tactics to destabilize the situation on the contact line, which is fraught by unpredictable consequences.

The NKR Defense Army vanguard units, however, took targeted and retaliatory actions to quell the aggressive “activeness” by Azerbaijan.

The Armenian armed forces are confidently in command of the operational situation along the Line of Contact.
