Around 200 instances of ceasefire violation at the line of contact between the NKR and Azerbaijani armed forces were reported on February 13-19.

Azerbaijan fired 1,000 shots at NKR positions, using various caliber weapons, according to updated data of the Artsakh Defense Army.

In contrast to previous cases of ceasefire violation, on February 15 Azerbaijan used RPG-7 grenade launcher in the southern part of the line of contact.

Besides, we would like to recall that servicemen of the NKR defense army prevented an Azerbaijani penetration into the territory of Artsakh near Jraberd settlement on Feb 17 morning. Being rebuffed, the subverters escaped. According to preliminary data, the Azerbaijani side suffered losses, what is confirmed also by Azerbaijani sources.

No losses are reported by the NKR Defense Army.
