The operational situation along the Line of Contact between the Karabakh-Azerbaijani opposing forces has remained the same in the early morning hours on Monday.

In some sectors of the contact line, the adversary violated the ceasefire agreement that was reached, and by way of rifle and mortar weaponry. 

In particular, the Azerbaijani armed forces fired shots, from a mortar and a grenade launcher, toward the Armenian military positions located in the southern and northern directions of the Line of Contact.

Vanguard units of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR/Artsakh) Defense Army, however, mostly refrained from taking actions in response, and they continued confidently carrying out their military task.

In addition, according to the agreement reached between the conflicting parties, on Monday, the Azerbaijani side will be permitted to continue searching for bodies along the contact line.

To note, the fate of one NKR Defense Army military serviceman remains unknown, and the respective queries are conducted through the International Committee of the Red Cross.
