Ministry of Emergency Situations
Information of MES's Press-service
Arising from provocative nature of the military-political leadership of the Republic of Armenia, the Armenian armed forces grossly violating norms and principles of international humanitarian law, continue to shell densely populated settlements, private houses and multi-storey residential buildings, as well as civilian facilities from heavy artillery. As a result, fires occur and the property of civilians is seriously damaged.
Thus, as a result of shelling by Armenian troops, fires broke out in civilian facilities in a number of villages of Aghdam and Tartar regions also today. The fires were extinguished within a short period of time by the relevant forces of the State Fire Protection Service of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, which were immediately involved in the site.
