ArmInfo. French President Emmanuel Macron welcomes the humanitarian ceasefire reached by Armenia and Azerbaijan after the French mediation agreed in recent days and hours with the OSCE Minsk Group. This is stated in the message of the French Embassy in the Republic of Armenia.
Note that, according to the press secretary of the RA Ministry of Defense Shushan Stepanyan, despite the announcement of a new humanitarian ceasefire, which came into force at 00:00 on October 18, the Azerbaijani armed forces once again grossly violated the agreement. By 07:20, with the use of artillery fire, the enemy launched an offensive in the southern direction (Khudaferin reservoir) in order to occupy an advantageous position. Both sides suffer losses.
