The two explosions heard in Stepanakert moments ago were caused by demining operations, which had been announced in advance by the Emergency Situations Service. This was written on his Facebook page by the head of the Artsakh presidential staff, Artak Beglaryan.
“Therefore, I urge the population to remain calm, and the authorized bodies will conduct an appropriate investigation to understand all the circumstances and prevent information risks caused by gaps in proper notification,” he noted.
