Azerbaijan, Baku, July 13 / Trend /
Armenian Armed Forces fired Azerbaijani Armed Forces from their positions near the villages Shikhlar, Javakhirli of Agdam region, Tapgaragoyunlu of Goranboy region and the positions at nameless heights of Fizuli region, the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry reported on Saturday.
Attacks were suppressed by return fire.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 per cent of Azerbaijan since 1992, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts.
Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France and the U.S. - are currently holding peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's four resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding regions.
