The situation at some parts of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border remains tense as of 6 p.m.

The press service of the republic's Defense Ministry told NEWS.am that it is too early to speak about stabilization of the situation, but the intensity of shelling recorded since midnight has significantly weakened. "The adversary has been trying to provide a position advance throughout the day with the use of special purpose units, in particular, in the direction of Nerkin Hand, Verin Shorzha, Artanish and Sotk.

The Armenian Armed Forces continue to carry out their combat tasks in full and the data on the losses of the Armenian side is being specified. From midnight till nowadays Azerbaijani units continue to aim at the borderline settlements and civil infrastructures. Against the background of this obvious reality, the Azerbaijani side's claims that they are not targeting civilians become more than absurd, there is enough evidence to prove the criminal actions of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces against the civilian population," the Armenian MOD said.
