Azeri troops fire 5600 shots in Jan 31- Feb 6 ceasefire violations

Azerbaijani armed forces have violated the ceasefire on the week of January 31- February 6, the Nagorno Karabakh Defense Army says.

According to the report, the rival's troops fired around 5600 shots from various caliber weapons, including 60- and 82-mm mortars, AGS-17 grenade launchers, as well as TR-107 rocket launchers.

Karabakh army units continue controlling the situation on the contact line, retaliating only in case of extreme necessity.

Despite the international community’s urgent calls to establish mechanisms for investigating border attacks and Armenia’s continuing support for the idea, Baku keeps stirring up tensions, Karabakh Defense Army said in a statement.

According to a previous report, Azeri troops fired over 1500 shots from various caliber weapons, including 60- and 82-mm mortars, as well as TR-107 rocket launchers on the night of February 5-6.
