Azerbaijan has again opened cross-border fire at the Tavush province of Armenia overnight September 16-17. However this time the shooting was insignificant compared to the previous days, Armenian defense ministry spokesperson Artsrun Hovhannisyan told ARMENPRESS.

“The shootings were relatively few, our response took place partly. The situation is currently calm, we don’t have losses,” Hovhannisyan said.

Azerbaijan has been shooting at Armenian border towns of Baghanis and Koti in the Tavush province during the recent days. The village of Areni was also targeted.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
