Azerbaijan attempts sabotage, fires 600 shots in ceasefire violations

Azerbaijani armed forces violated the ceasefire and attempted sabotage on the night of January 25-26, the Nagorno Karabakh Defense Army says.

According to the report, Azeri troops have fired around 600 shots from various caliber weapons, including 60- and 82-mm mortars, as well as an AGS-17 grenade launcher.

Besides, on January 26, at around 4:30 am, special units of the Azeri army initiated a subversive attack in the southern direction of the contact line with Nagorno Karabakh.

Having timely identified the rival groups, Karabakh Defense Army units took retaliatory measures, throwing the saboteurs back to their positions.

Karabakh troops continue controlling the situation on the contact line and protecting their position.
