Press Secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov called the clashes on the border of Azerbaijan and Armenia “disturbing news,” Day.Az reported on Tuesday, citing Russian media.
“We will watch carefully,” he said, adding that such incidents do not contribute to the advancement of the negotiation process and the approach to the signing of a peace treaty between Baku and Yerevan.
Peskov expressed hope that the negotiation process in order to sign a peace treaty will continue.
It should be noted that on February 12, at 20:50 and at 23:40, units of the Armenian Armed Forces from positions in the direction of the settlement of Chinarly, Tovuzgalinsky district, fired from small arms at the positions of the Azerbaijani army in the direction of the settlement of Kokhanabi, Tovuz region.
On February 13, units of the State Border Service (SBS) of Azerbaijan, in response to yesterday’s provocation of the Armenian Armed Forces, carried out Operation Retribution.
According to the State Border Service, as a result of the operation, a combat post of the Armenian Armed Forces near the settlement of Nerkin-And, Gafan region, from where fire was opened yesterday on the positions of the Azerbaijani army, was completely destroyed.
“There is evidence of serious losses among the personnel of the destroyed combat post. Every provocation by the Armenian side aimed at exacerbating operational conditions on the Azerbaijani-Armenian conditional state border will henceforth be followed by a response with more serious and decisive measures. Responsibility for what happened lies entirely with the military -the political leadership of Armenia,” the department said in a statement.
