On April 28, at around 11.40, a group of 8-10 people dressed in civilian clothing crossed the contact line and entered the buffer zone in the northeastern section of the RA border from direction of Alibeyli settlement. As Defense Ministry of Armenia reported in a released statement, they were carrying with them 30-40 meter-long pipes, presumably for establishing a water supply to a nearby Azerbaijani military post.
"Noticing the combat guards of the RA Armed Forces, the people in civilian clothing left the area immediately, moving to the direction of Alibeyli, leaving the pipes in the buffer zone. The servicemen of the RA Armed Forces showed restrain and didn't yield to provocations. The works of the adversary were stopped," said the release.
According to the information received from the RA NSS, the operational situation at the Vorotan-David Bek section of the Goris-Kapan interstate highway, which is under the responsibility of the NSS border troops, has not changed.
Subdivisions of the RA Armed Forces and NSS Border Troops control the border situation along the entire length of the border and carry out assigned tasks, the statement said.
