YEREVAN. – The Azerbaijani side yet again violated on Wednesday—and in the direction of the villages in Armenia’s Tavush Region—the ceasefire at the line of contact between Armenia’s and Azerbaijan’s armed forces, Armenian Defense Minister’s Press Secretary Artsrun Hovhannisyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

He added that there were no casualties from the Armenian side, and stressed that Azerbaijan violates the ceasefire on a regular basis.

As Armenian News-NEWS.am informed earlier, an Azerbaijani diversionary operation had claimed the lives of three Armenian soldiers and wounded six others—one of whom, an officer—in the early morning hours of June 4. The operation was carried out in the direction of the bordering Chinari and Berdavan villages of Tavush.

The killed soldiers were Hrach Sargsyan, Zohrab Balabekyan, and Karen Davtyan. And the wounded military servicemen were Senior Lieutenant Mushegh Nurbekyan, and conscripts Igit Hovhannisyan, Maxim Melkonyan, Sedrak Shahbazyan, Artak Mnatsakanyan and Koryun Iritsyan.
