STEPANAKERT. – One of the two Armenian soldiers, who were wounded in the early morning hours of Wednesday, is in satisfactory condition while the other is in stable condition, Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR) Defense Army Press Secretary Senor Hasratyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.  

He also informed that the soldiers are at NKR capital city Stepanakert Hospital, that Volodya Tsatryan—who is in stable condition—is conscious and able to speak, while Arayik Mavreyan is in satisfactory condition.    

But no information is provided with respect to Junior Sergeant Vardan Ohanyan, who was killed.

As Armenian News-NEWS.am informed earlier, an Azerbaijani intelligence-diversion unit yet again attempted to infiltrate to an NKR Defense Army military position stationed along the line of contact between the Karabakh-Azerbaijani opposing forces. This attempt was carried out on Wednesday at around 4:15am.    

But NKR Defense Army vanguard subdivisions resorted to a defensive battle and, as a result, drove the Azerbaijani unit back to its initial point.  

As a result of the skirmish, the adversary suffered considerable losses, but the Armenian side had losses, too, NKR Defense Army Media and Propaganda Department informs.  

During the operation toward rendering the Azerbaijani diversion unit ineffective, Junior Sergeant Vardan Ohanyan was killed while privates Arayik Mavreyan and Volodya Tsatryan were wounded.
