STEPANAKERT. – The relative calm along the line of contact between the Karabakh and Azerbaijani opposing forces was mostly maintained, from late Friday night to early Saturday morning.

The Nagorno-Karabakh Republic Defense Army (NKR/Artsakh DA) informed Armenian News-NEWS.am that during this time, however, the Azerbaijani armed forces violated the ceasefire by way of rifle weaponry, and fired irregular shots toward the Armenian position holders.

“[But] the DA vanguard units refrained from [taking] actions in response, and continued confidently carrying out [their] military service,” the respective statement reads.
