Armenian armed forces neutralize Azeri subversive grouping

PanARMENIAN.Net - An Azeri subversive grouping which attempted to penetrate into the Armenian territory was neutralized in Koty village of Tavush region of Armenia on March 3 night, 1.30 am.

“The Armenian military detected a group of 5 people in civilian clothes and armed with special devices. A warning fire followed by a skirmish as result of which one of the Azeris was wounded and taken captive but died on the way to hospital. The others escaped to Azerbaijan. To prevent penetrations, the Armenian armed forces undertook extra security measures,” the Armenian Defense Ministry said in a statement.

Earlier the day, another Azeri grouping was detected. 3 subversives, who acted under the artillery cover of their accomplices, were dressed in black and were armed with guns. Two of them were killed.

The personal belongings and tattoos on the bodies of the subversives suggest that they served in Azerbaijan special forces and were members of Wahhabi movement.
