Baku/14.10.21/Turan: A soldier of the Azerbaijan Army Hamzayev Afgan Bahram was killed on October 14 at about 18:15 as a result of sniper fire opened by  Armenian side, reads a press release of the press service of the  Ministry of Defense.

“A request has been sent to the Russian-Turkish Joint Monitoring Center to investigate this terrorist act which was committed by Armenian illegal military detachments during the meeting of the Foreign Ministers of Armenia and Azerbaijan in Minsk with the mediation of the Russian Federation is a deliberate provocation.

This is another proof of Armenia's policy of deliberately aggravating the situation in the region, obstructing the implementation of the provisions of the Joint Statement signed on November 10, 2020 and overshadowing the activities of Russian peacekeepers.

In accordance with the laws of the Republic of Azerbaijan, decisive steps will be taken to neutralize the illegal Armenian armed detachments that committed the terrorist act and ensure their response before the law”, - reads the press release.

Ministry of Defense does not specify where it happened.-0-
