October 26, Fineko/abc.az. Immediately after Armenian PM’s statement about the observance of the ceasefire regime from 8:00, the Armenian armed forces began shelling Azerbaijani Army’s positions in the Lachin direction, ABC.AZ reports citing Assistant to President of Azerbaijan Hikmet Hajiyev.

He noted that the civilian population of the Terter district and surrounding villages were shelled by Armeni.

Our positions in the Gedabek, Tovuz and Dashkesan districts were also shelled from the territory of the Berd, Chemberek and Vardeniz districts of Armenia: "After the Moscow statement of 10 October, Armenia fired a ballistic missile at the civilian population of the city of Ganja, and on 18 October, after agreeing on a humanitarian ceasefire on the initiative of France, Armenia again grossly violated it. All this once again shows that Armenia supports the humanitarian truce in words, but in reality, under the guise of a humanitarian truce, it uses it to fire at the Azerbaijani armed forces and civilians, concentrate its forces and seize new positions. Armenia's goal is to maintain and strengthen the status quo based on occupation.

The Azerbaijani side shows restraint.

"All responsibility for another violation of the ceasefire lies with Armenia," Hajiyev said.
