Artsakh President Arayik Harutyunyan made a post on his Facebook page.
"Dear compatriots,
I continue to stay on the front line and stand by our hero boys. They are doing great deeds to protect the Homeland and all our families.
At the same time I carry out the operative management of the Republic through the appropriate mechanisms.
After heavy fighting, the Defense Army today improved its positions and prepared the ground for further advancement.
Being in a difficult situation on the front line, Azerbaijan began to strike harder at our peaceful settlements, also using long-range missiles. These war crimes will have adequate responses, and we warn the Azerbaijani authorities in this regard for the last time.
We will defeat and punish the criminals who threaten our existence" the President of Artsakh wrote.
