    16 AZERI TROOPS KILLED

    Daily Sabah
    BAKU -

    Azerbaijan said Friday it had lost 16 soldiers in three days of
    clashes with arch-foe Armenia near the disputed Nagorny Karabakh
    region in a dramatic spike in tensions in the long-simmering
    territorial conflict.

    Azerbaijan's defense ministry said Armenian troops had ramped up their
    activity in the past few days and attacked Azeri positions.
    "Reconnaissance and sabotage groups of the Armenian armed forces
    attempted to break through the line of contact between the troops
    along the entire front line," the ministry said, adding that Armenian
    troops had been repelled. "As a result of clashes over the past three
    days, 16 Azeri troops have died," it said.
