Karabakh Army reports 35 more deaths

The Defense Army of Nagorno Karabakh has reported 35 more deaths in fighting against Azerbaijan.

Since September 27, when Azerbaijan started the war against Karabakh, 1009 Armenian soldiers have been killed.

A humanitarian ceasefire was supposed to come into effect on October 26 but Azerbaijan launched a new offensive and has been shelling Karabakh positions and settlements.

Azerbaijan, with help from Turkey and Syrian and Libyan mercenaries deployed by Ankara, started a war against Karabakh (Artsakh) in the morning of September 27. The Armenian side has reported deaths and injuries both among the civilian population and the military. Foreign and local journalists too have been injured in Azeri shelling of towns and villages.
