The day before, a provocative group of the Armenian Armed Forces tried to cross the Azerbaijani state border in the Zangilan region at around 18:00, the State Border Service (SBS) of Azerbaijan reported.
As a result of the measures taken, the sabotage group's penetration into the territory of the Republic of Azerbaijan was prevented, and the saboteurs were forced to retreat.
"The State Border Service regards this incident as a provocation by the Armenian side against the creation of delimitation commissions between countries and the corresponding work. The Federal Border Service of the Russian Federation in Armenia representatives have been informed about the provocation by the Armenian side. "If this happens again, we will take more serious measures", the statement says.
