The Azerbaijani army suffered a crushing defeat from Armenia after an illegal invasion
2020-07-13
Armenian military personnel defeated Azerbaijani forces that invaded across the border without losses.

A day earlier, a military conflict took place on the border of Armenia and Azerbaijan, resulting in very serious losses for the Azerbaijani side. It is known about the destruction of a bus with Azerbaijani armed forces soldiers, a downed drone and damaged armored vehicles that illegally entered the territory of Armenia, while there are no losses on the part of the Armenian military.
Despite the fact that the outbreak of a full-fledged military conflict between the two sides was avoided, this morning the Azerbaijani military made several new attempts to illegally transfer their paramilitary units to the territory of the neighboring state, however, the Armenian armed forces gave another adequate response, which does not exclude the growth of tension in the region.

At the moment, direct clashes are avoided, which probably indicates that each side is trying to resolve the conflict through diplomatic means, but the ongoing provocations do not allow this to be fully implemented.

Azerbaijan does not comment on the failed attempt to invade the territory of Armenia.

War between Armenia and Azerbaijan: the General of the armed forces of Azerbaijan and many officers were eliminated
2020-07-14
The military conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan is seriously getting worse.

Azerbaijan's provocative actions and artillery strikes on the territory of Armenia forced official Yerevan to take urgent measures and launch attacks on the positions of Azerbaijani military personnel, command posts and temporarily deployed headquarters, as a result of which Azerbaijan's losses in this confrontation have greatly increased – at the moment, it is known about the death of the chief of staff of the Azerbaijani armed forces corps, major General Polad Hashimov, chief of artillery Colonel Ilgar Mirzayev and several other high-ranking officers. Armenia, for its part, still denies any losses on its part, despite the attacks published by the Azerbaijani defense Ministry on the positions of the country's military personnel.

At the moment, Azerbaijan recognized the existing losses, but at the same time, it increased its attacks on the Armenian military, which resulted in the destruction of warehouses with weapons, vehicles for transporting people and goods, and even armored vehicles.

The growing confrontation between the two States obviously indicates that it was not possible to solve the problem by diplomatic means, however, experts note that the parties are well aware of what a further conflict may lead to, and therefore do not use combat aviation and tactical missile weapons for strikes.

"It is logical to assume that neither side wants to plunge into the conflict, but does not intend to give in. It is likely that the diplomats will be able to resolve the conflict in the near future, and I want to believe that it will be without losses, " the observer notes Avia.pro

It should be clarified that negotiations between the two countries are continuing, but it is not possible to achieve any decisive steps.

"State terrorism": Armenian foreign Ministry responds to Azerbaijan's threat to strike nuclear power plant
16.07.2020 - 22:35
The Armenian foreign Ministry called the threat of the Azerbaijani defense Ministry to strike the Metsamor nuclear power plant a blatant violation of international humanitarian law.

Such threats are a direct manifestation of state terrorism and Express Azerbaijan's genocidal intentions.

Moreover, by making such statements, the Azerbaijani leadership is a threat to all the peoples of the region, including its own people.

We strongly condemn the nuclear threats made by Azerbaijan, which demonstrate an absolute lack of common sense and a sense of responsibility on the part of this member of the international community.

Azerbaijan should immediately publicly renounce these threats, " the Armenian foreign Ministry said in a statement.

"Stop before it's too late!" — Simonyan recorded a harsh appeal to the Armenian authorities, accusing them of Russophobia
19.07.2020 - 5:30
RT editor-in-chief Margarita Simonyan has published an appeal to the Armenian authorities in connection with the military escalation on the border with Azerbaijan.

"I appeal to the Armenian authorities. It is to the government, not to the people, of which I am a part.

I appeal only because your Internet troops have been bringing my social networks with demands (in a boorish and aggressive form) to ‘Express their position’.

Asked- I'll express.

Look at yourself from the outside. Look what you're doing. How you behave. What kind of Armenians are you?

Armenians are an honest, noble and grateful people. Always has been. And you behave like (FORBIDDEN by ROSKOMNADZOR).

In response to many years of kindness and protection that you received from Russia, you did not recognize Crimea. Because this is an internal matter of Armenia.

Solely out of political revenge, you imprisoned Robert Kocharian — a staunch ally of Russia. They put them on purpose, defiantly, spitting directly in the face of their "Russian friends". Because this is an internal matter of Armenia.

You have flooded the country with anti-Russian NGOs that teach young people on your territory how to overthrow the government in Russia. You have become a springboard for anti-Russian forces in the Caucasus. Because this is an internal matter of Armenia.

You kicked out Russian Armenian businessmen. You don't want to host anything that has to do with Russia. Because this is an internal matter of Armenia.

Your media and social networks are hourly slaughtering Russia, Putin, and all those who support Putin, especially Russian Armenians (for example, me). You have divided the unfortunate and already disappearing Armenian people into enemies-Russian Armenians — and "real" ones — those who support your momentary power. Because this is an internal matter of Armenia.

And now, when there is a war on your border, when the very existence of your regime is under threat, when Armenians all over the world are already seeing the revived ghosts of Janissaries with curved knives that cut our ancestors, you remember that Russia must save you again.

Isn't this an internal matter for Armenia?

After all the evil and choking contempt that you have shown for Russia in recent years, do your information troops and you yourself feel entitled to wait for help?

In fact, after all that you have done, Russia has a full moral right to spit on you and RUB you. But she wouldn't do that. I'm sure. It will help this time.

Because Russia is like this. Generous and noble, my beloved homeland.

And you are just a handful of screaming politicians who have betrayed the interests of the great Armenian people for a moment of power and petty personal revenge.

Read Narekatsi at night. Maybe you will Wake up the remnants of the famous Armenian conscience and the ability to appreciate good.

If you don't have a Narekatsi, I'll send to you. It's on my nightstand.

As for the war, I will only say one thing to both sides: stop! There is nothing worse than war. I know that the hard way. Just stop before it's too late."

Армия Азербайджана понесла очень большие потери после неудачной попытки масштабного наступления на Армению

The Azerbaijani army suffered very heavy losses after an unsuccessful attempt to launch a large scale offensive against Armenia
2020-07-22
Azerbaijan's unsuccessful attempt to launch a large-scale offensive against Armenia resulted in heavy losses.

The Ministry of defense of Armenia reported that the unexpected attempt of the Azerbaijani army to launch a large-scale offensive resulted in heavy losses for the armed forces of this country. According to preliminary data, we may be talking about the loss of ten armored vehicles, several drones and several dozen soldiers.

"Today at 22:30 in the direction of the Anvah (Fearless) position, special forces units of the enemy launched another attack. Units of the Armenian armed forces repulsed the enemy's attack, causing significant losses, " the Armenian defense Ministry reports.

Representatives of the Azerbaijani defense Ministry initially refused to give any comments on this matter, however, later the defense Ministry of this country completely denied any losses.

"There was no new attack in that direction from our side. On the contrary, our section of the state border remains calm, we do not have any losses," the message reads.

It should be clarified that the Azerbaijani defense Ministry also denied the loss of several tanks, although there is direct evidence of this in the form of photos taken from unmanned aerial vehicles.

Turkish tanks and artillery are seen 15 kilometers from the border with Armenia. Video
2020-07-29

The risk of a military conflict between Armenia and Turkey has become critical.

The Turkish army has begun transferring its military personnel, armored vehicles, air defense, artillery and other weapons to the border with Armenia, which after the threats of occupation of this country, does not seem to be any exaggeration-just a few hours ago, Turkish armored vehicles, artillery and hundreds of soldiers were seen 15-18 kilometers from the border with Armenia.

We are talking about Turkey's alleged intentions to hold military exercises together with Azerbaijan this Saturday, but experts believe that in reality, Turkey and Azerbaijan are creating a springboard for an invasion of Armenia, similar to what has already taken place in Syria, Libya and Iraq, where Turkey invaded. A number of sources report that Turkey also intends to use its combat aircraft in the area of the exercise, which does not exclude the beginning of air strikes on Armenia.

Experts, in turn, note that the current concentration of forces of Turkey and Azerbaijan will not be enough to wage a full-scale war against Armenia, and if necessary, Russia will be ready to support Armenia as a member of the CSTO, providing both radar and satellite data.

"Armenia has enough air defense means to repel air attacks and quite enough means to iron out the positional area of the Turkish and Azerbaijani military with artillery. It is obvious that if these countries are aware of this fact, they will try to refuse any provocations, " the analyst notes Avia.pro.

It seems that the tensions have escalated today:

Call to arms: Armenia declares martial law & TOTAL MOBILIZATION as fighting against Azerbaijan continues
Members of Armenia’s army reserve were ordered to report to their local conscription office shortly after their country’s and Azerbaijani forces engaged in heavy fighting along the contested Nagorno-Karabakh border.
The nationwide conscription call and martial law were both announced by Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan earlier on Sunday. His Facebook post urged reservists to turn up at their territorial recruitment offices “for the sake of our homeland and for the sake of victory.”
The call to arms and martial law will be put in place because Azerbaijan may decide to attack Armenia, the premier clarified in an address to the nation later in the day.
Comprising around 44,000 active-duty troops – less than half of them conscripts – the Armenian military relies on a 210,000-strong standing reserve. Armenians who have completed military service as enlisted personnel bear an obligation to become soldiers in wartime up to the age of 50. Officers are mandated to remain in the reserve force until they turn 60.

The call to arms comes shortly after intense fighting broke out along the border of Nagorno-Karabakh, a disputed territory wedged between Armenia and Azerbaijan. Both sides reported civilian casualties and blamed each other for starting hostilities that involved artillery shelling as well as the use of combat aircraft and heavy armor.

Now, this is from previous weeks:

Russia is part of the mediation group of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) (an Russian-led alternative to NATO), this means that Moscow is treaty bound to defend Armenia via the CSTO.

We know that Erdogan uses tens of thousands of jihadis to push his conquest to reimpose Ottoman tyranny. Those were the so called 'moderate rebels' supported by NATO, the same people enforcing a reign of terror in Idlib, also despatched to cause trouble in Libya, and now in Armenia.
 
Will Russia intervene? I'm sure they will honor the CSTO treaty when Armenie faces impossible odds against the Ottoman tyranny. For now, they hope that situation will deescalate. OSIT.

https://twitter.com/x/status/1310952412140666882

Erdogan has lost in Syria, in North Africa and now he will lose in the Caucasus. Maybe he should convert more Christian churches into mosques (As he did with Hagia Sofia) to feel better about his defeats.
 
According to official statements, there is no f-16 in Azerbaijan. The Turkish and Azeri governments denied the reports of the plane crashes. There is no evidence, apparently.

If you have followed the war in Syria closely then you know that Syrian Girl is a reliable source considering conflicts in the Middle East and beyond. I don't consider her biased.

As you can read for yourself, it was an F16 of the Turkish Air Force. Also, Armenia and Turkey share the same border. Meaning the F16 could have been flown in from the Turkish side. I think it's true. Admitting a loss of a SU25 is a big loss and bad for morale. But time will tell more.
