The Ministry says Azerbaijani troops fired from different weapons, including 60- and 80 mm mortars, RPG-7 and HAN-17 grenade launchers. The Ministry also reports its forces repelled an attempt of “sabotage-reconnaissance” infiltration by Azerbaijan along the eastern region of the border early in the morning hours on January 26, at around 04:30 am.
