The Defense Army of Nagorno Karabakh (Artsakh) on Saturday, June 3 denied firing on Azerbaijani positions across the line of contact.

“The statement disseminated by the Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan that the Defense Army units allegedly opened fire against Azerbaijani combat positions located in the occupied territories of Askeran, Shushi, Martuni and Karvachar of the Republic of Artsakh on June 3 night does not correspond to reality,” the Defense Army said in a short statement.
