The Azerbaijan Army’s engineer-sapper units continue to clear the territories and supply roads mined by sabotage groups during a large-scale provocation committed by the Armenian armed forces, noted the Ministry of Defense, according to Azerbaijan in Focus, reporting AzerTac.

“As a result of demining activities conducted in the territory of the Lachin district, on September 10, another 100 E-001 M type anti-personnel mines produced in Armenia in 2021 were detected in the ravine gap of the northeastern part of the Boyuk Ishigli Mount.
