Yesterday, enemy forces attacked an RPC vehicle returning from a  patrol in Nagorno-Karabakh. All the peacekeepers in the car died.  According to the media, two deputy commanders of the RPC, a driver  and two ordinary peacekeepers were killed.

The President of the Republic of Azerbaijan called the Russian leader  and apologized for the incident, expressing his readiness to provide  financial assistance to the families of the victims.

This is not the first time that the enemy side, allegedly by mistake,  strikes at the Russian military. On November 9, 2020, the AR Armed  Forces shot down a Russian helicopter on the territory of the  Republic of Armenia, both pilots were killed. The enemy side then  also offered only nominal apologies. The perpetrators were not  brought to justice.
