Spokesman for the Armenian Ministry of Defense Artsrun Hovhannisyan has dismissed the claims of Azerbaijani media that the Armenian armed forces attacked the village of Lakatag in the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic.
Regnum agency quoted Azerbaijani media as saying that fighting was under way in the village and residents were forced to flee their homes.
“The reports do not correspond to reality, no shot has been fired from the Armenian side,” Artsarun Hovhannisyan told Public Radio of Armenia.
