"Azerbaijan did not shell us" EU mission catches Yerevans lie
The EU mission in Armenia has not been shelled by Azerbaijani armed forces.
As Caliber.Az reports, the EU mission in Armenia has clearly stated this, refuting a previous report by the Armenian defense ministry.
The EU mission in Yerevan confirmed on their X (former Twitter) page, that "no EUMA patrol has been the target of a shooting. We patrol alongside the Armenian - Azerbaijan border areas and report to Brussels on military developments, including shooting incidents in our area of responsibility."
❌No #EUMA patrol has been the target of shooting.

The Armenian defense ministry had earlier announced that units of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces opened fire in the direction of EU observers in Armenia. The Ministry of Defence of Azerbaijan called this reporting a misinformation.
