Deputies of the Azerbaijani parliament have observed one minute’s silence in memory of the Azerbaijani servicemen who died during the operations on the contact line in Nagorno Karabakh.
The parliamentary speaker Ogtay Asadov thanked the Azerbaijani army for the successfully conducted operations. "Azerbaijan has respected the ceasefire regime for many years. Whenever Azerbaijan attains a great achievement, Armenia resorts to provocations. But lately the Armenians have begun shelling our civilians. And the Azerbaijani Army carried out a successful operation, pushing Armenia back to its place," Trend cited him as saying.
Asadov added that the Azerbaijani army has taken control of important strategic heights.
