Starting from March, the EU Mission in Armenia has increased the number of night patrols along the Armenian side of Armenia-Azerbaijan to enhance nighttime security and safety and relieve possible tensions.
“Our monitors remain committed around the clock, ensuring a continuous presence day and night,” EUMA said in a post on X.
EU Mission in Armenia (EUMA) was launched by the decision of EU Foreign Affairs Council on 20 February 2023, when it also started its operational activities. EUMA is tasked with observing and reporting on the situation on the ground, contributing to human security in conflict-affected areas and supporting the confidence building between Armenia and Azerbaijan, where possible.
EUMA is deployed on the Armenian side of the international border with Azerbaijan. EUMA Headquarters is located in Yeghegnadzor, with six Forward Operating Bases in Yeghegnadzor, Jermuk, Martuni, Kapan, Goris and Ijevan. The Mission also has a liaison office in Yerevan.
