Despite the humanitarian ceasefire regime, the Armenian forces' units tried to attack in different front directions, after concentrating their powers, Azerbaijan's Defense Ministry reports.
"In the daytime, the enemy attempted to attack from the side of the Tugh village in the direction of Hadrut as well as from the Aragul and Banazur in the direction of Jabrayil,'' reads the statement.
"As a result of our units' preventive measures, the enemy, suffering heavy human losses and military equipment, was forced to retreat. Due to well-organized defense, our units were able to stop the enemy's advance and defeated him, luring into a trap,'' the ministry reports.
"As a result of the military clash, 38 enemy servicemen, 2 BM-21 "Grad" MLRS, seven artillery pieces, and two trucks with ammunition were destroyed.
Our troops currently maintain an operational advantage along the entire length of the front,'' the statement concludes.
