Armenian army was using large-caliber machine guns.

The Azerbaijani army positions located in the Gaymagli village and on nameless heights of Azerbaijan’s Gazakh district underwent fire from the Armenian army positions located in the Paravakar village of the Ijevan district and Barekamavan village of the Noyemberyan district of Armenia.

Meanwhile, the Azerbaijani army positions located in the Alibayli village of Azerbaijan’s Tovuz district were shelled from the Armenian army positions located in the Mosesgekh village of Armenia’s Berd district.

Moreover, the Azerbaijani army positions also underwent fire from the Armenian positions located near the Armenian-occupied Goyarkh and Chilaburt villages of the Tartar district, Shikhlar and Javahirli villages of the Aghdam district, Kuropatkino village of the Khojavand district, Garakhanbayli village of the Fuzuli district, as well as from the positions located on nameless heights of the Goranboy, Tartar, Khojavand and Fuzuli districts.

The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. As a result of the ensuing war, in 1992 Armenian armed forces occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts. The 1994 ceasefire agreement was followed by peace negotiations.

Armenia has not yet implemented four UN Security Council resolutions on withdrawal of its armed forces from the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding districts.
