During the second week of November, Azerbaijan and Armenia exchanged accusations, provocations and alleged violations of the previous cease-fire agreement, which was brokered by Russia after a 44-day-long war over Nagorno-Karabakh in 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clashes were reported from Shusha and Lachin. Both areas are strategic locations, and representatives of Azerbaijan and Armenia traded barbs regarding the accuracy of the violations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On 8 November, an exchange of fire near Shusha<\/a> in the Karabakh region left one Armenian civilian dead and three further wounded. As a result, both sides accused each other of being responsible for the event and for continuing provocations in a fragile region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tensions escalated during the week, with reports of Armenian soldiers besieged in Lachin<\/a> and wounded Azerbaijani soldiers<\/a>, raising concerns about the stability of the region among international observers, such as the OSCE and the Council of Europe<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 16 November clashes were reportedly the most violent<\/a>, with the Armenian Defense Ministry stating that one soldier had died and thirteen had been taken hostage. Their Azerbaijani counterparts announced seven dead and ten injured servicemen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After this clash, talks between the Defense Ministers of Azerbaijan and Armenia, Zakir Hasanov and Suren Papikyan, were held. The calls were moderated by the Russian Defense Minister, Sergei Shoigu<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result of the telephone conversations<\/a>, both countries apparently have taken measures to stabilize the situation and to cease fighting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was a major breach of the ceasefire agreement achieved after the Fall 2020 War. Since then, certain areas have returned to Azerbaijani control and Russian peacekeeping forces operate in the region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
