Despite the ceasefire agreement reached in the US, Azerbaijani forces launched an offensive in the SE sector shelling peaceful settlements as well, #DefenseArmy reports.
DA units conduct defensive battles to repel the enemy offensives & push them back to starting positions.
Congratulations to Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, who just agreed to adhere to a cease fire effectiveย at midnight. Many lives will be saved. Proud of my team @SecPompeo & Steve Biegun & @WHNSC for getting the deal done!
While their foreign minister is in DC pretending they want peace, Azerbaijan is bombing civilians in Stepanakert and Martuni. #PeaceforArmenians#StopAliyev
Dear @realDonaldTrump, Christian Armenians are under attack! I urge you to secure an immediate ceasefire, and stop all U.S. military assistance to Azerbaijan & sanction Turkey.
