YEREVAN, December 12. /ARKA/. On December 11, at about 20:40, Azerbaijani troops attempted an attack in the direction of one of the combat posts located in the southern direction of the Defense Army of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh), the Artsakh Ministry of Defense reported.
“As a result of the shooting, three reservists received wounds of varying severity. Nothing threatens their lives. An investigation is underway to find out the details of the incident,” the Artsakh Defense Ministry said.
At the same time, it noted that Azerbaijani media reports alleging that Armenian forces in the Hadrut region resorted to armed provocation, as a result of which an Azerbaijani soldier was wounded, do not correspond to reality.
From September 27 to November 9, Azerbaijani armed forces, backed by Turkey and foreign mercenaries and terrorists, attacked Nagorno-Karabakh along the entire front line using rocket and artillery weapons, heavy armored vehicles, military aircraft and prohibited types of weapons such as cluster bombs and phosphorus weapons.

According to the document, the parties stopped at where they were at that time. The town of Shushi, the districts of Agdam, Kelbajar and Lachin are handed over to Azerbaijan, with the exception of a 5-kilometer corridor connecting Karabakh with Armenia.
A Russian peacekeeping contingent has been deployed along the contact line in Karabakh and along the Lachin corridor. Internally displaced persons and refugees are returning to Karabakh and adjacent regions, prisoners of war, hostages and other detained persons and bodies of the dead are being exchanged.--0-
