The peacekeeping contingent provides round-the-clock monitoring of the situation and ensures that the ceasefire is being observed through 27 posts located in the Lachin corridor and along the entire contact line in Nagorno-Karabakh. The Russian peacekeepers were deployed in the region immediately after Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, Russian and Azerbaijani Presidents Vladimir Putin and Ilham Aliyev signed a statement to end the war in Karabakh on November 9.
