/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The situation at the line of contact is still tensed
but exchange of fire is not fixed, Armenia’s Foreign Minister Vartan
Oskanian told reporters today.
"Azerbaijan keeps on circulating false information on ongoing
skirmishes and casualties among Azeri servicemen. We do state that
there is no exchange of fire presently and that we will refute the
information spread by Azerbaijan," the Minister said.
On March 4 early morning Azeri special forces attacked a position
of the NKR Defense Army near Levonarkh settlement of Mardakert
region. The attack was rebuffed and status quo restored. A crisis
monitoring due on March 7 by request of the NKR MFA was postponed
through Azerbaijan’s fault.
