received alerts regarding the shootings by the armed forces of Azerbaijan in
the direction of Movses, Chinar, Aygepar and Nerkin Karmiraghbyur settlements
of Tavush region.

facts. According to the information received at the moment, as a result of the
fire launched by the Azerbaijani armed forces, civilian infrastructures were
damaged: houses, gravestones, and a civilian car.

state of stress and anxiety.
The Defender emphasizes that these actions grossly
violate the principles of international law, pose a real threat to the right to
life, safety of citizens, as well as other fundamental rights.
