The Azerbaijani military positions in the village of Alibayli in Tovuz
District [northwest Azerbaijan, borders on Armenia] again was
subjected to intensive fire from Armenia’s Shamshadin District for
about three hours last night. Only large-calibre guns were used this
time. No casualties have been reported.

It has been the third attack on the village of Alibayli in three days,
the Tovuz district executive authorities have told the ANS bureau in
Ganca. Bahruz Rustamov, head of the public and political department of
the Tovuz district executive authorities, presumes that the Armenians
have become active because of the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline
construction and that they have been trying to resume hostilities in
the region.
