MosJan Posted July 15, 2003 Report Share Posted July 15, 2003 AZERI GROUP ATTEMPTS TO SABOTAGE NKR FORCES In violation of a cease-fire agreement, an Azeri military group of six or seven soldiers attacked Karabagh defense forces stationed at the southeastern line of contact between Nagorno Karabagh Republic (NKR) and Azerbaijan on July 14 at 4:05 A.M, Armenpress reported. The NKR Foreign Ministry reported that the patrolling Karabagh soldiers foiled the attack, taking necessary measures so as not to harm the Azeri militants. The Azeri side withdrew with one Azeri soldier dead and others injured. NKR defense army suffered no losses. NKR's defense minister noted recent increase in violations of the cease-fire by the Azeri military. And that in spite of the Azeri defense minister's directive to obey the cease-fire, Azeri military units continue violating the agreement. The NKR defense ministry warned twice, in July, that any attempt by the Azeri side to compromise the security of NKR would be met with an appropriate response. On Monday, once again, the press office of NKR's defense ministry gave the same warning on attempts to destabilize the situation in the Karabaghi-Azeri conflict zone. The leadership of NKR immediately contacted the Red Cross International Committee and the Organization of Security and Cooperation in Europe in Stepanakert about the attack and expressed their readiness to hand over the body of the killed Azeri soldier to Azerbaijan.
