At this moment residential areas are also being targeted; Azerbaijani artillery is striking the town of Martakert, announced Artsrun Hovhannisyan, representative of the Ministry of Defense, at a press conference convened at the Unified Information Center.
“Our armed forces have succeeded in making new positional improvements. The adversary has carried out counterattacks in some places. Our armed forces are fighting stubborn battles. The Azerbaijani side’s statement that the Armenian side has hundreds of casualties is a falsehood. As of this moment we have about 200 wounded. 80 wounded servicemen have been transferred to Yerevan hospitals and civilian hospitals. The condition of most is light; after first aid they have returned to the ranks,” announced Artsrun Hovhannisyan.
