Pashinyan: Battles for Shushi continue

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said Monday, November 9 that the battles for the Nagorno-Karabakh city of Shushi continue.

Pashinyan's comments came after Karabakh presidential spokesman Vahram Poghosyan said the Defense Army has lost control of the key stronghold.

Azerbaijan, with help from Turkey and terrorist mercenaries deployed by Ankara, started a war against Karabakh (Artsakh) in the morning of September 27. The Armenian side has reported deaths and injuries both among the civilian population and the military. Foreign and local journalists too have been injured in Azeri shelling of towns and villages.
