CoE Secretary General is concerned about instability of  Armenian-Azerbaijani border

ArmInfo.Secretary General of the Council of Europe, Marija Pejcinovic Buric, is concerned about  the instability of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border.

"Concerned about reports of exchange of fire along the  Armenia-Azerbaijan border. Call on both sides to abstain from the use  of force.  Dialogue is the only way to lasting peace," the CoE  Secretary General wrote on her microblog on Twitter (X).

On the morning of February 13, the Armenian Ministry of Defense  reported that the Azerbaijani armed forces opened fire on Armenian  combat positions on the border in the Nerkin Hand (Syunik region). 

According to the Ministry of Defense of Armenia, four servicemen were  killed and one more was injured.

Azerbaijan not only does not deny the fact of aggression, but also  cynically stated that they carried out a 'revenge operation' in  response to a "provocation" by the Armenian military. At the same  time, they added that as a result of these actions, the Armenian  combat post was destroyed. It is noteworthy that all this is  happening in the territories of Armenia, which were previously  captured by the enemy side against the background of the  international community's tacit encouragement of Azerbaijani  aggression.
