Azerbaijani armed forces opened gunfire at a farmer in Nagorno-Karabakh on June 22, the Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) Ministry of Defense said in a statement.
The shooting happened after Azerbaijan generated yet another disinformation falsely claiming that it disrupted alleged engineering works by the Artsakh Defense Army.
The Azerbaijani forces opened fire in between 13:40 – 14:20, June 22, at a farmer working in his tractor in agricultural fields of Tchartar.
Nagorno-Karabakh authorities said they reported the shooting to the Russian peacekeepers.
As of 09:30, June 23 the situation on the line of contact was relatively stable, the Defense Ministry of Nagorno- Karabakh added.
The shooting comes a day after Azerbaijani forces shot and wounded an on-duty soldier of the Defense Army.
