YEREVAN, October 4. /ARKA/. Armenian Deputy Prime Minister Tigran Avinyan said today that Azerbaijan has resumed the shelling of Stepanakert, the capital of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh).
"Stepanakert is being shelled again," Avinyan wrote in a Facebook post, noting that the enemy could not come to terms with the retaliatory strikes inflicted on it earlier today.
A spokesman for Artsakh president said earlier today that Karabakh forces have destroyed a military airfield in Gyanja, Azerbaijan’s second largest city.
The capital of Artsakh has been subjected to missile and air strikes from Azerbaijan for the third day, which has led to numerous destruction of civilian infrastructure. Many local residents have been wounded.
Today's morning shelling is the worst by Azerbaijani forces since the start of Azerbaijani large-scale offensive against Artsakh a week ago. According to Artsakh officials, Azerbaijan is using Polonez and Smerch multiple-launch rocket systems to hit civilian infrastructures in the city.
