After more than three days of fierce fighting, the Armenian and Azerbaijani militaries announced on Tuesday afternoon that they have agreed to stop hostilities in and around Nagorno-Karabakh.
The spokesman for Karabakh’s Armenian-backed army, Senor Hasratian, said the ceasefire took effect at noon along the entire “line of contact” north and east of the Armenian-controlled region.
Azerbaijan’s Defense Ministry issued a similar short statement. No further details of the agreement were immediately given by either side.
