Rocket launchers on alert in front-line in Karabakh
According to our sources in [Azerbaijan’s breakaway region] Nagornyy
Karabakh defence army, all Grad systems [multiple rocket launcher] of
a military unit in Karabakh’s Martuni District have been taken out of
the unit and placed along the road of the military unit a few days
ago.
According to experts, such a move does not occur in an ordinary
situation – Grad systems are taken out only ahead of hostilities and
parades. Our sources also say that a quite unexpected situation
emerged on the front-line as well. According to our information,
engineering works which began on the front-line a few months ago were
stopped unexpectedly these days. The engineering works aimed to
connect few trench [as given] automobile roads, which are of essential
significance for the front line and lead to the front line. It is
noteworthy, that workers were not explained the reason for closure –
they were ordered to collect construction equipment and leave.
