As usual, the adversary initiated an unsuccessful attempt to put the blame on the Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) side for the offensive actions initiated on February 25, around 3 and 4 a.m. in the northeastern and eastern directions of the Line of Contact, respectively, which ended in full failure, the Press Service of the NKR Defense Ministry reports.
In particular, on February 25, the Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan issued a press release mentioning that the Artsakh forces allegedly initiated offensive actions in order to improve their positions, even without forgetting to mention that during the “defensive” the Azerbaijani forces had losses.
“The Press Service of the NKR Defense Ministry informs that the above-mentioned Azerbaijani statement is untrue. Moreover, here a very simple question arises the answer of which we leave to the Azerbaijani propagandists. The question is as follows: How can the defending side leave casualties in the neutral zone?” the statement reads.
