On September 17, around 6:20 pm, the Azerbaijani Armed Forces violated the ceasefire in Martakert region by using small arms and ZU-23-2, Artsakh Defense Army reports.

“There is one injured soldier on the Artsakh side. His life is not in danger.

Command of Russian peacekeeping forces is briefed on the violation.

The information spread by Azerbaijan’s MoD claiming that on September 17, around 17:45, the Defense Forces opened fire in the direction of Azerbaijani positions located in the occupied territories of Martakert region, is false, an attempt to justify the ceasefire violation by their own units,” the statement reads.
