Armed incidents, which happened this week along the Azeri-Armenian
contact line and caused casualties, were another provocation of
Armenia, Azeri Vice Prime Minister, Chairman of the State Committee on
Refugees and Displaced Persons Ali Hasanov said on Thursday.

“Actions taken during and after the regional visit of U.S. Secretary
of State Hillary Clinton are a provocation, which may be done by the
order of their sponsors,” he said.

The Azeri Defense Ministry said that five Azeri soldiers died in
stopping an infiltration of an Armenian reconnaissance and sabotage
group through the contact line on June 4.
