“The reports by Armenian media quoting Armenian Defense Ministry on as if positions and vehicle of Azerbaijani Armed Forces were destroyed on January 31 is lie and misinformation”, APA reports quoting statement posted on the website of Azerbaijani Defense Ministry.
According to statement, as the enemy side cannot do anything in order to avenge for casualties and shooting down of unmanned aerial vehicle, they try to deceive Armenian soldier and people by releasing misinformation.
“Quite the reverse, today, an enemy sabotage was prevented in the Gazakh region of Azerbaijan-Armenian border at about 3:00 p.m. 6 enemy servicemen attempting to open a cross from the minefield have been destroyed. Unfortunately, On January 31, Azerbaijani soldier Alahverdiyev Eshgin Rahim was killed as a result of rebounding bullet and the ceasefire violation in Khojavend region at about 12.55 p.m. The Defense Ministry extended deepest condolences to the parents and relatives of the martyr and wished them patience. The Defense Ministry says that Azerbaijani Armed Forces fully control operational situation along frontline and are ready to prevent any act by enemy”.
