Artsakh Defence Ministry denounced as fake the news spread by Azerbaijan about preventing a diversion attempt and taking an Armenian soldier prisoner. The Defence Ministry declared that it has not taken such action. “Moreover, when punishing action is taken in order to restrain the adversary, the painful consequences are quick to come. By spreading this message, the armed forces of the adversary try to win a victory in the virtual domain and present their wishful thinking as reality,” states the message.
The speaker of the Defence Ministry of Armenia also denied the Azerbaijani lies. Artrun Hovhannisyan wrote in his social network page that Armenian armed forces had not carried out any diversion and had not lost any soldier.
