The latest ceasefire agreement takes effect
Xinhua News Agency, Tbilisi, October 26 (Reporter Li Ming) The latest agreement between Azerbaijan and Armenia to implement a humanitarian ceasefire in the Nagorno-Karabakh (Naka) area took effect on the 26th, but the conflict in the Naka region has not yet occurred. After calming down, the Ayas and the two sides continued to accuse each other of breaking the ceasefire and launching an offense.
The Azerbaijan News Agency quoted Azerbaijan’s Ministry of National Defense on the 26th as saying that Armenian forces opened fire on the Tauz, Tatar, and Qadabar areas in Azerbaijan on the morning of the 26th.
The Armenian News Agency quoted a statement made by the spokesperson of the Ministry of Defense of Asia, Stepanyan, on the 26th, saying that the Afghan military launched shelling on the northeast and southeast directions of the Naka region shortly after the new round of ceasefire agreement took effect.
On October 20, local time, the Azerbaijani Ministry of National Defense released a picture that day showing that Azerbaijani artillery troops fired violently on targets in the Naka region. The Azerbaijani side stated that parts of its territory were also shelled by Armenia that day.
On the 25th, the two countries reached the latest agreement to implement a humanitarian ceasefire in the Naka area in Washington, the capital of the United States. The two sides agreed to implement a new round of humanitarian ceasefire from 8:00 on the 26th local time.
This is the third ceasefire agreement reached by the two sides since the current round of conflict broke out.
The two countries reached a ceasefire agreement on October 10 and October 17.
However, after the ceasefire agreement came into effect, both sides accused each other of breaking the ceasefire and launching attacks.
On September 27, the two countries began to clashed again in the Naka area.
Over the past few days, conflicts have caused casualties, including civilians.
The Naka region is located in southwestern Azerbaijan, and its residents are mostly Armenians.
After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, war broke out between Azerbaijan and Armenia over the ownership of the Naka region.
In 1994, the two sides reached an agreement on a comprehensive ceasefire, but the two countries have been in a state of hostility due to the Naka issue, and armed conflicts have occurred from time to time.
