Yesterday evening, the Azerbaijani media spread news on the military units of Armenian Armed Forces opening fire on Azerbaijani Garalar village, in the result of which a 13 years old child was wounded.
The Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Armenia categorically denies the aforementioned information and announces that during yesterday evening and the previous night the Armenian Armed Forces did not open fire along the whole Armenian-Azerbaijani borderline from any types of weapons. The Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Armenia reminds once again that the Armed Forces of Armenia never and at neither case target the peaceful residences.
The fraud of Azerbaijani propaganda machine becomes clear even in the photographs they spread, where it is plainly seen that the wounds of the child are obviously old and cannot have any relation with the fragmentary wounds as if received on August 7.
The Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Armenia urges the military-political authorities of Azerbaijan to stay away from new adventures, as well as warns that in case of any provocation, the Armenian side will undertake respective rough actions.
Yesterday night the Azerbaijani media spread misinformation implying as if the Armenian units have opened fire on Azerbaijani Garalar village, wounding a 13 years old child.
We strongly deny this misinformation and warn the Azerbaijani military-political authority that any provocation will not remain responseless and the whole responsibility will fall on the Azerbaijani side.
