Azerbaijan canceled all international flights except for those with Turkey as fighting intensified in the Armenian-occupied Nagorno-Karabakh region, according to reports on regional media.
Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev ordered martial law to be imposed in some regions of the country and called for a curfew in major cities.
Meanwhile, Turkey has pledged full support to Azerbaijan in its struggle against Armenian occupation and aggression in occupied Nagorno-Karabakh.
The Azerbaijani Armed Forces undertook counter-offensive measures under what it described as the nation’s right to self-defense to thwart further military aggression by Armenia and provide security to densely populated civilian residential areas, it said.
Calling the illegal presence of the Armenian army in occupied Nagorno-Karabakh and surrounding regions of Azerbaijan a serious threat to regional peace and security, the ministry called on the international community to “strongly” condemn Armenia’s policy of aggression and provocative activities against Azerbaijan.
