NKR serviceman killed in foiled Azerbaijani subversion
Nagorno Karabakh troops foiled on the night of January 20 an attempt of two Azerbaijani subversive groups to infiltrate into the territory of Karabakh.
“Early Monday the armed forces of the NKR noticed two simultaneous attempts by Azerbaijani subversive groups to infiltrate in the northeastern (Jraberd) and southeastern (Korgan) directions of the line of contact of the Karabakh and Azerbaijani armed forces. The frontline units of the Nagorno Karabakh troops launched an organized defense. The enemy’s subversive groups were thrown back suffering human and material losses,” the press service of the NKR Defense Ministry reported.
Junior Sergeant of the NKR armed forces Armen Hovhannisian was killed in the shooting.
