Karabakh: Azerbaijan is making “informational preparations” for provocation
September 8, 2023 - 13:55 AMT

PanARMENIAN.Net - The Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) Defense Army has issued a statement, declaring that Azerbaijan is making “informational preparations” for another provocation by spreading false messages.

The Defense Army denied a statement from the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry accusing the Armenian troops of carrying out engineering work which was allegedly suspending “due to intervention from the Azerbaijani units.”

Since December 12, 2022, the sole road connecting Nagorno Karabakh to Armenia - the Lachin Corridor - has been blocked by Azerbaijan. Baku tightened the blockade on June 15, 2023, banning emergency relief supplies that were carried out by Russian peacekeepers and the International Committee of the Red Cross through the sole road connecting Karabakh to Armenia and the outside world. The move aggravated the shortages of food, medicine and other essential items experienced by the region’s population. On August 15, Karabakh Human Rights Defender’s office reported the first case of death from starvation.
