From March 24 to 25, the Azerbaijani armed forces, violating the provisions of the trilateral statement of the leaders of Russia, Azerbaijan and Armenia of November 9, 2020, entered the zone of responsibility of the Russian peacekeeping contingent in the territory of Nagorno-Karabakh and installed an observation post. Four strikes were carried out by a “Bayraktar-TB 2” unmanned aerial vehicle in the direction of units of the Nagorno-Karabakh armed formations in the area of the Parukh settlement. This was stated in a bulletin of the Russian Defense Ministry.
“At present, the command of the Russian peacekeeping contingent is taking measures to regulate the situation and return the troops to their starting positions. A call has been made to the Azerbaijani side to withdraw its troops,” the statement issued by the Russian Defense Ministry said.
