Drone, rocket land in Georgia near Azerbaijani border

PanARMENIAN.Net - A drone and a rocket landed in Georgia on Wednesday, October 7, in a region that borders Azerbaijan, Aliq.ge reports.

The Georgian Ministry of Internal Affairs launched an investigation after the Emergency Situations Service received a report on the drone and the missile.

The rocket landed in a vineyard, in a village called Kuchatan, while the UAV fell in the border village of Udabno, which is situated close to the Davit Gareja Monastery.

It was reported earlier that shells landed in Iran, amid fighting between Armenian and Azerbaijani forces in Nagorno-Karabakh.

Azerbaijan, with help from Turkey, launched a large-scale offensive against Karabakh (Artsakh) in the morning of September 27, shelling Armenian positions and civilian settlements with large caliber weapons and rocket systems. Armenia and Karabakh have introduced martial law and total mobilization. The Armenian side has reported deaths and injuries both among the civilian population and the military. International and local journalists too have been injured in Azeri shelling of towns and villages.

Donations can be made to Hayastan All-Armenian Fund, which has launched a fundraising campaign to support Karabakh amid Azerbaijan's aggression.
