Azerbaijani media reported firing artillery at the Defence Army units retreating in the direction of the Red Market, causing heavy casualties. The Azeri propaganda machine, true to form, distorts the truth, in an attempt turn Aliyev's obvious lie about capturing Hardut into a reality. The Defence Army continues to confidently carry out its mission across the entire front line. Meanwhile, the Defence Army has halted an attempted Azerbaijani assault which violated the humanitarian truce. The operation to hunt down and destroy the remaining elements of the commando raiders in the Hadrut area continues. The Defence Army continues to exert its full control over the battlefield. Once more, we remind our compatriots that only official updates are credible.
