The Armenian Armed Forces shot down one Su-25 assault aircraft of Azerbaijan. Shushan Stepanyan, press secretary of the Armenian Defense Ministry, announced this on Facebook.
“Air defense units of the Defense Army of Artsakh [Nagorno-Karabakh] shot down one Su-25 enemy unit in the northeastern direction,” she wrote.
The Azerbaijani Defense Ministry denied this message. They said that the message “about another allegedly” shot down “Azerbaijani Su-25 attack aircraft is” an impudent lie from despair. ” “The combat aviation of Azerbaijan is not used, and we fully adhere to the requirements of a humanitarian truce,” the ministry added.
Earlier, the foreign ministers of Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan held talks in Moscow to resolve the conflict. The parties agreed on a humanitarian ceasefire from noon on October 10. However, with the beginning of the truce, the countries accused each other of violating the agreements.
Military operations on the line of contact in Nagorno-Karabakh resumed on September 27. The countries accused each other of violating the ceasefire and introduced martial law. Hundreds of wounded and dead, including civilians, are reported on both sides.
