YEREVAN (Armenpress)–Azerbaijan once again violated ceasefire Thursday when shots were reported during a routine radio-monitoring along the Armenian-Azeri border near the Ijevan-Ghazakh region.
Armenian Defense Ministry spokesman Seyran Shahsuvarian said that during the monitoring–communication was established with the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) representatives conducting the monitoring on the Azeri side. Shots were then registered from the Azeri side.
Although ceasefire violations have occurred sporadically since the 1994 cease fire–they have become more frequent in recent weeks amid more aggressive war rhetoric from Baku.
