As a result, according to preliminary information, two servicemen of the Azerbaijan Army were wounded. The servicemen were provided with urgent medical assistance. There is no danger to their life.
Army Corps and forces of the Azerbaijan Army stationed in the direction of the Kalbajar and Lachin regions immediately carried out an emergency operation to suppress combat activity of the Armenian armed forces.
