Nagorno-Karabakh says two soldiers killed by Azeri gunfire

YEREVAN - The Armenian-backed breakaway region of Nagorno-Karabakh said two of its soldiers were killed by gunfire from Azerbaijan early on Tuesday, as tensions simmered weeks after an eruption of clashes.

 

Both sides said they exchanged fire overnight and blamed each other for starting the fighting.

 

A Moscow-brokered ceasefire halted four days of violence in the South Caucasus region on April 5, but sporadic shooting is still frequent at night.
