STEPANAKERT, FEBRUARY 21, ARMENPRESS. The Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense released new disinformation accusing the Artsakh Defense Army units in opening fire on February 20 and 21 in the direction of Azerbaijani military positions deployed adjacent to the villages of Shosh and Taghavard.

The Artsakh Ministry of Defense said the Azeri accusations are entirely false, and moreover the Azeri units themselves violated the ceasefire in the abovementioned area.

“The events described in the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry’s statement are entirely false. The ceasefire was actually violated by the Azerbaijani military units by opening sporadic fire in the direction of Defense Army positions. There are no victims or material damages as a result of the ceasefire violation,” the Ministry of Defense of Artsakh said.

The information on the Azerbaijani ceasefire violation was reported to the Russian peacekeeping command.

“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
