During another infiltration attempt on the Line of Contact between Karabakh-Azerbaijani opposing forces several days ago, the adversary suffered seven casualties, detachment commander Roland Aydinyan told Armenian News – NEWS.am special correspondent in Artaskh.

“During the recent days, the adversary constantly and aggressively wanted to move forward and change its border line, but our answer was proper. Several infiltration attempts have taken place towards our positions these days. Last time a group of 30 tried to pass by our position, but they were pushed back, seven of them being killed,”he said.

According to Aydinyan, the personnel on duty never loses its vigilance.

For his part, Junior Sergeant Garik Ghazaryan noted that they resisted the adversary with great courage and will continue in the same fashion.
