Azerbaijani Armed Forces entrenched at Farrukh height /UPDATED/

    In the afternoon of March 25, a battle took place near the village of Farrukh and the height of the same name in Karabakh. As a result, the Armenian side has 14 wounded and two dead. The Armenians failed to squeeze out the Azerbaijani military from this strategic height. Russian peacekeepers also failed to force the Azerbaijanis to withdraw.

    This was reported on Friday by the Armenian media. The same sources claim that the Azerbaijani side attacked the Armenian positions with drones.

    Recall that the Azerbaijani Armed Forces took the village of Farrukh and the height of the same name a day earlier and began to build a road there. It is reported that the Azerbaijani military occupied the village of Farukh without firing, and the Russian peacekeepers did not interfere in what was happening.

    In turn, the Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan did not comment on the reports of the Armenian side about the hostilities in the region of the Farrukh height (1200 m) on Friday.

    It should be noted that the village of Farukh in the former Askeran region of Karabakh is of strategic importance. This is a dominant height, which allows you to keep at gunpoint most of the Askeran region, including the regional center itself.
