27 ceasefire violations by Azerbaijan registered on border with Armenia

27 ceasefire violations were registered on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border overnight on April 21-22.

The Azerbaijani side, in particular, used various caliber firearms and sniper rifles to open random bursts of fire towards the Armenian positions.

Besides, the rival employed 60- and 82-mm mortars and an AGS-17 grenade launcher.

Showing restraint, the Armenian Armed Forces’ frontline units took retaliatory measures only in case of extreme necessity to continue controlling the situation on the border.
