Karabakh Defense Ministry Releases Names of 6 Killed Azeri Soldiers

STEPANAKERT — The Nagorno-Karabakh Republic Ministry of Defense on Tuesday identified six more Azerbaijani soldiers which it said were also killed on Sunday by retaliatory fire from the Armenian side. “The Azerbaijani military continues to conceal its real losses in order to mislead the domestic public and cover up the failure of its criminal tactic,” it said in a statement.

According to data released by the defense army, apart from the three casualties announced on the previous day, Azerbaijani army had 6 more losses on Sept. 28: Shahiyar Ali oglu Uyadov (called up 13.01.2015), Eyyub Abdulla oglu Ramazanov (called up 28.04.2015), Nicat Mehman oglu Yaraev (called up 08.12.2014), Ahmed Jivanshir oglu Eyyubov (called up 08.12.2014), Elvin Mushru oglu
Yusufov (called up 15.12.2014) and Samir Sabir oglu Ahmedov (called up 18.07.2014).

The Defense Ministry in Baku categorically denied these reports claiming that people with such names have never served in the Azerbaijani army. It also urged Azerbaijani media not to disseminate the “enemy propaganda.”
