Azeris Breach Cease Fire Again

STEPANAKERT, YEREVAN (Combined Sources)—One Armenian soldier was wounded late Tuesday after what the Nagorno-Karabakh Army press office described as an attack by Azeri units in an attempt to overrun Karabakh positions, reported ArmRadio.

The cease fire breach took place at 6:30 a.m. local time on Tuesday near the village of Chailu in northeastern Karabakh, at the same place where on June 18 Azeri forces launched an attack, killing four Armenian soldiers.

According to Nagorno-Karabakh Republic army spokesman, Senor Hasratian, told RFE/RL that the Karabakh soldier who was wounded was 19-year-old Rudik Manaserian. Doctors at a military hospital in Stepanakert told RFE/RL on Wednesday that Manaserian underwent surgery and is now in “satisfactory” condition.

“The Armenian servicemen on duty noticed the movement of an enemy special task force on time and took appropriate measures,” said the Karabakh army report, adding that following the Armenian response the Azeri forces retreated, suffering losses. According to Azeri Defense Ministry sources, seven Azeri soldiers died during the attack.

“The incident that occurred in the northeastern direction of the line of contact between the armed forces of Nagorno Karabakh and Azerbaijan (in the vicinity of Chailu village) once again proves that official Baku intends to perpetuate the instability in the region not only through periodic war rhetoric, but also frequent acts of sabotage at different parts of the contact line,” the Karabakh Defense Army said.

“The Azerbaijani side is quick to blame the Karabakh forces at every turn. The official and non-official Azeri propaganda machine remains committed to this version of the story,” added the statement.

“Once again Azerbaijan showed its true face. However, the enemy retreated, suffering losses as a result of the appropriate measures taken by the Armenian side. As usual, they are spreading false information,” said Armenian Defense Minister Seyran Ohanian in response to Azeri reports that blamed the Karabakh army for the cease fire violation and claims that the Karabakh side suffered three losses.

The attacks come on the eve of a scheduled visit by Russian President Dmitry Medvedev to Baku. It remains to be seen how this latest violation of the cease fire by Baku will play out during Medvedev’s visit.

    “Azeris break cease fire” is an act of war and it means the cease fire agreement means nothing. So every time this happens Karabakh should take this as an invitation to liberate more of our lands. We can do this all the way to Baku. I don’t understand why we are waiting around watching these animals multiply and get more hostile by the day.

      It is easy to talk big while you all are here, in US, driving your nice cars, eating good food and expect those poor young Armenian boys from Armenia to go and get you more of our land land, till Baku, as you say in your comment. It would have been fair if many of Armenian here, who think like you, to go and serve the army in Armenia, if they think that fighting is the way. I think to save lives of our young men in Armenia we should find a peaceful way to deal with those Azeries, war is not a solution. And how can we fight with them when Armenia is so much smaller, less populated? Most Armenians are here, in US, not there…so stop talking big, that is all I wanted to say.

    Why is it that we are always on the defensive crossing our fingers and hoping that the EU and the US are going to look at us more favorably? Why can’t we attack and blame the azeri’s for breaking the line of contact and claim that we responded to azeri troop movements. This is being redundant and childish.

    this is a sign of desperation from Azeriz. Their president Albiyev or what he called, he wants to stay in power to further his political BS, he knows he can’t win militarily, so he plans to stay in power as long as he can, and order skirmishes, for internal consumption. I hope someday they’re stupid enough and try to attack armenia from nakhichevan, so we can take it back again…

    azeris say 3 armenians have been killed + 2 azeris. Armenians say 7 azeris have been killed, 1 aremenian wounded. Each side is trying to magnify the losses of the other and minimize his own, so we kinda don’t know for sure.
    However the names of the 2 100% dead azeris are known. Born in 1991, dead just two days ago. These guys were young, 19 y/o and they died for nothing. For no reason, just because of the whims of their leader. Yet they could live and enjoy their lives yet for so many years. Azris, don’t play that game just because some fool says you to, let aliyev come himself fight for karabach in stead of enjoying in his palace and sending you to die. Astsakh is armenian, you have enough lands to live o, if you want to live there with armenians as neighbors, then you’re welcome, once you accept it’s independance.
    ps. in case of war, I WILL go there and annihilate any invader!

    I like your comment, thank you. At least you say you will go and fight, if needed, not like others just talk like this big mouse in our famous armenian fable when he calles for action (to put the bell around the cats neck) yet he himself is only a talker….Why talk like we can EVER win over Azerbadzan, seriously! if not Russions help, who help us ONLY because they do not want Azerbadzan to get stronger, not because the ‘love” Armenian. You are right, THE ONLY WAY IS TO FIND A WAY TO LIVE LIKE GOOD NEIGBORS, DO BUSINESS AND GET RICHER it will be good for all or us. So diaspora shot SHUT UP instead of provoking big actions such as OH let us go get our LAND till Baku. SO stupid!

    The azeri attacks are not military probes or for azeri internal propaganda consumption or even for provoking Armenian forces to escalate tension. They are international political tests of will of the West and Russia. After every azeri attack what has the response been from America, Europe and Russia? Next to nil. Either a mealy mouth condemnation of violence in general, not a condemnation of the violator azerbaijan. They want to lull the west into accepting azeri violence as only natural. This is the desire of our eastern barbarians.
    The azeris do not want this settled by peaceful means. They afterall are great warrior turks who have been humiliated by the lowly giavour. Only an azeri victory and the taking of not only our liberated territories but also a good chunk of eastern Armenia as well will overturn the humiliation of the last 20 years of the “mighty azeri”. The azeris are emboldened by the facts that they can buy lots of weaponry, training, the west’s need of their oil and gas and Armenia’s weekness of late at western pressure at signing agreements not in Armenia’s favor. War under these circimstances, and azeri psychological complexes, is inevitable.
    What must Armenia do? Armenia must not allow a suprise attack. When Armenia knows the attack is imminent, Armenia must and I mean must attack first. This is the Armenian version of the Israeli 6 Day War. Even with the meager Armenian and Artsakh order of battle an Armenian victory and the acquisition of the Armenian territories of Nakhichevan and the entire right bank of the Kura are possible. The turkish mind is weak, at the beginning it’s full of bravado but after taking a bloody nose from the giavour, the bravado disappears and self doubt overtakes it and then they run for the plains of Arran and back to the comfort of baku with their tails between their legs blaming everything on everyone else. We have seen it before. The nature of the turk never changes.

    you are so funny guys:) Armenia can never take Nakhichevan, because Turkey is right next to it. And stop believing to such stories. No one truly knows who breaks the cease fire, and no one truly knows how many soldiers die from each side. Someone wrote about Aliyev. I think, Armenians should be thankful that Aliyev is still in power, because any opposition party in Azerbaijan wants start the war to retake Karabakh. And considering wealth of their Nation, they are capable of doing that in less than a month.
    When some of you say that Armenia should attack and get more lands, i guess you are forgetting that Armenia is dealing not with the same Azerbaijan 10 years ago. Look at the numbers, see how many warplanes, weapons they buy every year. Just in 2010 two military factories were built in Azerbaijan by Turkish government to produce own weapons and remote controlled war planes. The rules of the game have changed, guys. It doesn’t matter anymore how brave the soulders are, what matters is how much money and weapons you have.

      The fact that Azeris are forced to spend a great deal of their income from oil to buy weapons ( the other huge chunck is grabbed by Aliyev and co.), does not mean much. If in fact your analysis were correct, then Azerbaijan would not hesitate for a moment to attack Artsakh. Think about it…why hasn’t Aliyev attacked yet?….Turkey is also armed to the teeth but has not been able to deal with PKK. Just having arms does not mean you can win a war . Saudis spend billions on weapons and so do many other countries, but when it comes to war, they can not win it on their own. You must also think that Armenians have just stood idly watching time go by in the last 10 years. They are more resolute now ,more dtermined than ever before not to give back their beloved land to the enemy. arstakh has been won with the blood of our young men and women, we are not going to return it to the Azeris or anyone else for that matter. As for having weapons and the latest and most sophisticated ones for that, all you have to do is look at Afghanistan….there is the mighty USA with the latest of everything….just count how many years it has been….just think if they are winning the war,,,think again if they’ll ever win that war…….

      Do you really think that if your relatives really thought that they can capture the lands in one month, they would still be dreaming about it today. When one is fighting to protect his home, everything else is out the window.

    in 1970 I was in USA, I told a friend of mine every Inividual who speaks in Armenian have to pay Tax for the future of Armenia, becaus eif armenia gets it’s independence will need money to manage himself.
    I added there are funs available like Golbegian Fund for the students higher education and these funs has to go to talented Armenian students to gain very high education and be able to develope devices and equipments for use for armenian defense.Frend of mine smiled and told me then we wont speak in Armenian and wont pay TAX. Because he didn’t believe one day Armenia will get it’s independence.
    Today again we have to pay a percentage of our income as a TAX and we have to send our youn people to Armenia to at least 20 days a year to visit the boarders and get some military training to make sure at a time in need they will and be able to help the armenians at war time.

    Compliance status

    We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.

    To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.

    This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.

    Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.

    If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email

    Screen-reader and keyboard navigation

    Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:

    1. Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.

      These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.

    2. Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.

      Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

    Disability profiles supported in our website

    • Epilepsy Safe Mode: this profile enables people with epilepsy to use the website safely by eliminating the risk of seizures that result from flashing or blinking animations and risky color combinations.
    • Visually Impaired Mode: this mode adjusts the website for the convenience of users with visual impairments such as Degrading Eyesight, Tunnel Vision, Cataract, Glaucoma, and others.
    • Cognitive Disability Mode: this mode provides different assistive options to help users with cognitive impairments such as Dyslexia, Autism, CVA, and others, to focus on the essential elements of the website more easily.

    • Keyboard Navigation Profile (Motor-Impaired): this profile enables motor-impaired persons to operate the website using the keyboard Tab, Shift+Tab, and the Enter keys. Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.

    Additional UI, design, and readability adjustments

    1. Font adjustments – users, can increase and decrease its size, change its family (type), adjust the spacing, alignment, line height, and more.
    2. Color adjustments – users can select various color contrast profiles such as light, dark, inverted, and monochrome. Additionally, users can swap color schemes of titles, texts, and backgrounds, with over 7 different coloring options.
    3. Animations – epileptic users can stop all running animations with the click of a button. Animations controlled by the interface include videos, GIFs, and CSS flashing transitions.
    4. Content highlighting – users can choose to emphasize important elements such as links and titles. They can also choose to highlight focused or hovered elements only.
    5. Audio muting – users with hearing devices may experience headaches or other issues due to automatic audio playing. This option lets users mute the entire website instantly.
    6. Cognitive disorders – we utilize a search engine that is linked to Wikipedia and Wiktionary, allowing people with cognitive disorders to decipher meanings of phrases, initials, slang, and others.
    7. Additional functions – we provide users the option to change cursor color and size, use a printing mode, enable a virtual keyboard, and many other functions.

    Browser and assistive technology compatibility

    We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC users.

    Notes, comments, and feedback

    Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
