By setting fire to the grass at the neutral zone, in an easterly (Akn) direction of the  Line of Contact between the Karabakh and Azerbaijani opposing forces, the adversary’s vanguard units had the objective of inflicting economic damage to the Artsakh side.

Artak Beglaryan, Spokesperson of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR/Artsakh) Prime Minister, on Saturday told the aforesaid to Armenian News-NEWS.am.

“Especially the farmers of the [NKR] border regions suffer damages from it,” Beglaryan added. “This causes not only social problems, but psychological, since the people are constantly tense.

“And on the other hand, it is reprehensible that the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan met [on Monday in Vienna], they were able to agree on some points, they agreed on confidence-building measures, and this was followed by not only ceasefire violations [by Azerbaijan], but such provocative actions, which do not contribute to confidence building.”

In his words, however, the Artsakh side managed to put out the aforementioned fire on time.

“They [i.e. the Azerbaijanis] did not carry out such provocative actions after [Thursday,] May 19,” Artak Beglaryan informed. “Now, we are taking preventive steps; the grass cover is guarded, so that security zones are formed.”
