In the morning, the Azerbaijani armed forces attacked in the southern direction using a large number of UAVs and artillery and violating the new humanitarian ceasefire. There are casualties on both sides. 4 enemy tanks were eliminated. At the moment, it is relatively calm at the border. The enemy did not fire on settlements and civilian infrastructure.
