The operational situation along the contact line of Karabakh-Azerbaijan
armed forces kept strained over the past week. Between October 24 and
30, Azerbaijani army violated ceasefire regime more than 165 times
most intensively firing at NKR positions in Hadrut and Martakert
resulting in death of Armenian serviceman Harut Grigoryan on October
26, around 04:45 pm in Martakert.

It is noteworthy that the enemy undertook provocative actions just
hours after OSCE monitoring mission which testifies to official Baku’s
unconstructive approach aimed at destabilizing the situation. Thus,
only in October, Azerbaijani army violated ceasefire over 750 times
firing in total 7000 shots. Therefore, the only conclusion one
should draw is that the reports issued by Azerbaijan’s official
and unofficial sources of propaganda that allegedly Armenian
forces periodically violate ceasefire regime on the contact line is
nothing else but purposeful misinformation aimed at misleading the
international community.

As to the NKR Defense Army operations aimed at neutralization of
enemy’s periodical provocations, they are coordinated and purposeful
which enables us not only to suppress enemy’s aggression but also to
constantly keep the situation under control, NKR Defense Army reported.
