    Azeri troops thwart Armenia's attempt to advance front-line position

    [translated from Azeri]

    Baku, 26 April: The Azerbaijani armed forces have prevented another
    provocation by the Armenian army on the state border in the direction
    of Kamarli village of Azerbaijan's Qazax District.

    It was found out on the morning of 25 April that the Armenians were
    carrying out the excavation along the front line in Armenia's Dovejh
    village and attempted to propel their positions, military sources
    reported.

    In response to this, a vehicle used by Armenians in the area was
    destroyed as a result of measures taken by Azerbaijani troops. A
    soldier of the enemy's engineering construction unit was wounded.
    There were no losses on the Azerbaijani side.

    During the observations, it was recorded that civilians and means of
    transportation were involved in the work to change the positions of
    Armenia.

    The source reported that the enemy's attempts to capture the
    Azerbaijani army's positions on several occasions in the
    abovementioned direction and to change the situation on state border
    for its own benefit were prevented over the last weeks.

    It was also noted in the report that the Armenian armed forces have
    become active on border areas near Qazax and Tovuz districts of
    Azerbaijan since March. The Armenian Defence Ministry have replaced a
    part of border forces with contract soldiers and deployed special
    forces there.

    At least 20 acts of provocation against the Azerbaijani armed forces
    were prevented in April. Two Armenian soldiers were killed, five were
    wounded in the north of the state border as a result of retaliation
    measures.
