Azerbaijani troops violate ceasefire `230 times, firing 1500 bullets'
13:26 - 04.06.11
Azerbaijani Armed Forces violated the ceasefire accord across the Line
of Contact for about 230 times from May 29 to June 4, according to a
press release by the Defense Army of Nagorno Karabakh.
The Azerbaijan front troops, according to the same report, violated
the ceasefire by using weapons of various calibers and fired around
1500 bullets on the Armenian outposts.
On June 3 alone the Azeri forces violated the ceasefire for 70 times,
firing about 400 bullets.
The ceasefire violations come after the Deauville statement adopted by
the US, Russian and French presidents in which they called on the
conflicting parties to prepare their people to peace rather than for
war, the statement adds.
`Even more, Baku, committed to its habits, simultaneously with the
pre-emptive attacks has engaged in propaganda, accusing the Armenian
side of aggressive acts ahead of the trilateral meeting to be held in
Kazan,' reads the statement by Karabakhi Defense Army.
Further, it explains that citing sources at the Azerbaijani Defense
Ministry, the Azerbaijan media reported of the killing of an
Azerbaijani shepherd in Aghdam allegedly by Armenian troops.
Commenting on the incident, the head of the press office of Karabakh's
Defense Army Senor Hasratyan said that the Armenian troops not only do
not open fire at civilians, but also avoid responding to ceasefire
violations by the Azerbaijani troops.
`As what concerns reports disseminated by the Azerbaijani propaganda
about the killing of a civilian, they are nothing but a recurrent
misinformation or an unsuccessful attempt to shift the blame of a
lethal incident in their own camp onto Armenians,' said Hasratyan.
