Azerbaijan again fires at Armenian positions

The Azerbaijani party keeps on firing at the Armenian positions. Thus, the NKR Defense Army reports over 2000 shots at the Karabakh position in the line of contact for the last few days. 

In addition, on April 23 the enemy fired at the medical vehicle of the NKR Defense Army from a big caliber sniper gun "Istigal". In fact, soldiers Andranik Madoyan and Ernest Sargsyan were wounded. 

"The given incident once again demonstrates the destabilizing tactics of Azerbaijan in the conflict zone.   Baku cynically violates the provisions of the Geneva Convention and opens fire at the medical vehicle having the red cross sign on it," the NKR Defense Army press-service reports.

Earlier on April 25 the defense positions of the Armenian army near Dovekh village of Tavush region were fired. A kindergarten of the village was fired at too. For this reason, the children and workers of the kindergarten were evacuated. As a result of operative actions taken by Armenian servicemen, the fire points of the enemy were suppressed.

EU to push for sanctions on Israel ministers and suspend bilateral support

The President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen stated she would push to sanction "extremist" Israeli ministers and curb trade ties over Gaza, as she warned famine should not be used as a "weapon of war". Addressing the European Parliament on 10 September in the annual State of the Union, von der Leyen lamented that divisions among member states were holding back a European response but insisted the European Commission "will do all that it can on its own". "What is happening in Gaza has shaken the conscience of the world. People killed while begging for food. Mothers holding lifeless babies. These images are simply catastrophic," von der Leyen said. The German politician said the Commission would put its bilateral support to Israel on hold, stopping all payments, but without affecting work with civil society groups and Israel's Yad Vashem Holocaust memorial.
