Turkey is closely following the clashes on the Azerbaijani-Armenian contact line, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said, Cihan agency reported.
During the meeting with media in the Turkish city of Kars Turkish Foreign Minister said that Turkey is closely following the frequent violations of the ceasefire on the contact line between Armenian and Azerbaijani troops.
Davutoglu said that Turkey would hold consultations with the Azerbaijani side on this issue.
"Stability in the Caucasus is possible only if Azerbaijani lands are released. Turkey will make every possible effort to put an end to violations of the ceasefire, " Davutoglu said.
Armenian armed commando group crossed the contact line in the village of Chayli in Terter region and attempted to attack the positions of Azerbaijani armed forces August 31 at 16:30, the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry said.
After a serious response from Azerbaijani soldiers, the Armenian side lost three soldiers and some were injured.
Two Azerbaijani soldiers - 19-year-old Amirov Vugar (drafted by Imishli military office) and 19-year-old Abdullaev Parvin (drafted by Sabirabad military office) heroically died as a result of the incident.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 percent 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 negotiations to resolve the dispute.
Armenia has failed to implement U.N. Security Council resolutions stipulating the liberation of Nagorno-Karabakh and surrounding regions.
