STEPANAKERT. – The situation was calm along the line of contact between the Karabakh and Azerbaijani opposing forces, as the adversary violated the ceasefire solely 8 times, from late Wednesday night to early Thursday morning. 

During this time the Azerbaijani armed forces fired about 60 shots toward the Armenian position-holders, and with shooting weapons, the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR/Artsakh) Defense Army informed Armenian News-NEWS.am. 

The NKR Defense Army vanguard units, however, continued confidently carrying out the military task set before them; but without taking actions in response.
