A ceasefire agreement was reached between Armenia and Azerbaijan in the US-mediated Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and was to take effect on Monday. But on the same day, this third agreement of its kind failed after both sides accused each other of violating it.
Azerbaijan has accused Armenia of shelling a village in the region, while the Armenian Ministry of Defense has said that Azerbaijani authorities violated the ceasefire agreement by firing from several of their military positions.
In a Facebook post, Armenian President Nikol Pishnian said his country was "strictly adhering to the principles of the ceasefire."
On the other hand, the spokesman of the President of Azerbaijan has said that his country is showing restraint while Armenia is trying to protect its occupation.
