PanARMENIAN.Net – Armenian armed forces are able to handle Azerbaijani
provocations without CSTO’s support, military expert said.
“CSTO headed by Nikolay Bordyuzha has reiterated readiness to extend
assistance to Armenia in case of large-scale hostilities,” David
Jamalyan said.
On June 4, gross Azeri ceasefire violation was recorded in the
north-eastern direction of Armenian-Azerbaijani border, with an
attempt made to enter Armenian positions in Tavush Province of Armenia.
The attack was halted by Armenian soldiers’ brave actions. As a result
of Azerbaijani sabotage, three Armenian soldiers (Mushegh Nurbekyan,
Zohrab Balabekyan and Karen Davtyan) were killed. The violation also
claimed wounded, according to RA Ministry of Defense press service.
