On October 18 “Center for Humanitarian Demining and Expertise” received information that there was abandoned ammunition in the territory adjacent to Yeghvard and Uzhanis communities of Syunik marz’s Kapan region. Thanks to the efforts of engineering service of the Armenian armed forces and as a result of examination carried out with the expertise support of the Humanitarian Demining Center, ammunition was found in the abandoned posts of the adversary in the abovementioned territory, still after the military operations of the 1990s’. On October 27 the ammunition was destroyed. The activities of searching another batch of abandoned ammunition in the adversary’s former post in the territory of Yeghvard and Uzhanis are underway. The territories, where the abandoned ammunition was found, are used as meadows and pastures by the residents of Yeghvard and Uzhanis communities. This fact once again must be a call for alertness and vigilance for the community residents, reminding them that it is strictly prohibited to enter hazardous areas. It is indisputable that the revelation of the abandoned ammunition is vivid proof that during the years of the Armenian-Azerbaijani confrontation, the adversary shelled the centers of Yeghvard and Uzhanis communities from these posts. And, most likely, as a result of the targeted shelling by our artillery, the adversary left the posts in panic, leaving the ammunition.
