    YEREVAN. - Azerbaijani Armed Forces violated the ceasefire, at their

    Azerbaijan made use of sniper weaponry more than 2,300 times and
    large-caliber weaponry, close to 334 times, Armenia's MOD reports.

    And eleven Armenian military servicemen were killed and twenty-one
    others-including three civilians-were wounded as a result of
