Footage of Azerbaijani artillery pounding Armenian villages

Head of the Armenian Unified Infocenter, former Defense Ministry spokesman Artsrun Hovhannisyan has published footage from Azerbaijani military's shelling of border Armenian settlements.

"This is how the Azerbaijani artillery was pounding our villages on July 13-14," Hovhannisyan captioned the video posted on Facebook.

On July 12, Azerbaijan launched two failed infiltration attempts on the border with Armenia whose troops immediately identified the saboteurs and thwarted them back to their positions. Since the next morning, the Azerbaijani military has been firing on the Armenian positions, also using large caliber grenade launchers and combat drones to target civilian homes in several border settlements. Four servicemen of the Armenian army have been killed, 20 others have been wounded, while Azerbaijan has reported 11 deaths.
