The Defense Army units did not suffer any casualties as a result of the incident, the Ministry said.
The rival’s activity was suppressed after retaliatory actions taken by the Armenian side.
This is the first time since June that the Azerbaijani armed forces have used mortars.
Ceasefire violations from different types of firearms have also been registered throughout the day.
