Foreign ambassadors to Armenia visited on Thursday the village of Yeraskh to get acquainted with the border situation following the June 14 Azeri cross-border shooting which left two civilians wounded in a construction site.
The steelworks construction site targeted by the Azeri forces is a $70 million Armenian-American project in Yeraskh. The steelworks, often referred to as a “metallurgical plant”, is expected to produce 180,000 tons output annually after being launched.
On June 14, two workers at the construction site of the plant were shot and wounded by Azerbaijani forces. The victims are nationals of India. Both were successfully operated on and are in moderate condition.
