Azerbaijani army positions come under Armenian fire

KARABAKH  29 May 2023 - 10:18

On the evening of May 28, members of an illegal Armenian military formation on Azerbaijani territory, where Russian peacekeepers are temporarily stationed, fired on Azerbaijani army positions in the direction of the liberated Aghdam district.

Our units stationed in this direction have taken adequate response measures, Caliber.Az reports, citing The Azerbaijani Defence Ministry.

As part of his visit to Lachin on May 28, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev sent some messages to revanchist separatists on its internationally-recognised territory Karabakh.

“I am telling them [Armenians] again from here, from the land of Lachin which they had been exploiting for many years and were engaged in illegal settlement, that their book is closed. The book 'Miatsum [unification of Karabakh and Armenia]' is closed, the book of separatism is closed. The dream of independence follows the path of the status. As for the status, we sent it to where it belongs during the second Karabakh war. Therefore, there is only one option left – to obey the laws of Azerbaijan, be a loyal and normal citizen of Azerbaijan, throw the false state attributes in the trash, and dissolve the 'parliament' – as if there is a 'parliament', as if there is a president, as if there is a minister, all this is funny. We are simply being patient. However, everyone knows perfectly well that we have all the opportunities to carry out any operation in that region today. Therefore, the 'parliament' should be dissolved, the element calling himself 'president' should surrender, all 'ministers', 'deputies' and others should give up their positions,” he said.
