Assistant Speaker of United States House of Representatives Katherine Clark has slammed Azerbaijan for its latest "unprovoked attack" on Armenia.

"I stand with the people of Armenia who have suffered another unprovoked attack," Clark said on Thursday, November 18.

"Azerbaijan must acknowledge and respect Armenian sovereignty. I condemn this latest act of aggression and urge the government to adhere to last year's peace deal."

In clashes launched by Azerbaijan on November 16, the Armenian side has confirmed 6 deaths, while 13 soldiers have been captured by Azerbaijan. Two combat positions too have gone under the control of Azeri forces, 24 Armenian troops have gone missing.
