The Azerbaijani Defense Ministry and the State Border Service have issued a joint statement.
The statement said:
"Azerbaijan, adhering to the new humanitarian ceasefire, is taking only adequate measures, restraining the provocations committed by the enemy along the entire front," he said.
Taking advantage of this, Armenia is purposefully aggravating the situation in various directions of the front, especially on the restored state borders, creating the basis for further provocations.
The Armenian leadership must now realize and reckon that the restored state borders are not a zone of conflict and are a state border recognized by the international community, which defines the full sovereign territories of Azerbaijan.
The inviolability of the state border must be ensured. Any provocation in this direction is assessed as an attack on our territorial integrity.
From this point of view, Azerbaijan has the right to destroy any legitimate military targets that threaten its territory, regardless of its location.
