Nagorno-Karabakh has long been a source of conflict between Armenians and Azerbaijanis (Azerbaijanis), with the most recent armed conflicts in April 2016, May 2017, and July 2020, killing civilians. It has come out.
According to the Armenian side, 'Azerbaijan provoked' and according to the Azerbaijani side, 'Armenia has attacked military facilities', it is unknown how it started. However, it seems that both sides, including civilians, have been sacrificed.
Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan tweeted that there were missile attacks and air raids from Azerbaijan, shooting down two helicopters and three UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) and destroying three tanks.
Azerbaijan has launched a missile & aerial attack against #Artsakh . Peaceful settlements including #Stepanakert have been attacked. Armenian side has shot down 2 helicopters & 3 UAVs, destroyed 3 tanks. We stay strong next to our army to protect our motherland from Azeri invasion
