The September 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh clashes is ongoing armed conflict between the armed forces of Azerbaijan and Armenia and the Republic of Artsakh in the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region. The clashes began in the morning of 27 September along the Nagorno-Karabakh line of contact. Both sides reported military and civilian casualties.[3] In response to the clashes, martial law and total mobilization was announced in Armenia[7] and in the self-proclaimed Republic of Artsakh.[8] In Azerbaijan martial law and curfew were introduced.[9]
Background
The clashes are a part of the unresolved Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, which stems from the dispute over Nagorno-Karabakh. The Nagorno-Karabakh War had ended with a ceasefire in 1994, but since multiple violations of the ceasefire occurred, the most serious being the 2016 Nagorno-Karabakh clashes and the July 2020 clashes.
From July to September 2020 Azerbaijan conducted a series of military exercises, some involving Turkey.[10] Also prior to the resumption of hostilities, allegations emerged that Syrian mercenaries from the Hamza Division were transferred to Azerbaijan,[11] while according to Turkish allegations, many YPG and PKK members from Iraq and Syria were transferred to Nagorno-Karabakh in order to train Armenian militias against Azerbaijan.[12]
On 23 July 2020 Armenia announced the start of joint Armenian-Russian air defence system exercises and analyses of July 2020 clashes[13].
Clashes
On September 27, 2020 at 08:03 am, the press secretary of the President of the Republic of Artsakh, Vahram Poghosyan, said that Azerbaijan is delivering missile and air strikes on the territory of peaceful settlements, including Stepanakert. The authorities urged the population to hide in bomb shelters.[14]
The Azerbaijani side stated that on 27 September, at about 06:00 local time, Armenian armed forces started an intensive shelling from large-caliber weapons, mortars, and artillery mounts of various calibers of the positions of the Azerbaijan army along the entire frontline and Azerbaijani settlements in the frontline zone.[15] Azerbaijan said the Armenian side attacked and that Azerbaijan launched a counteroffensive in response.[16] Hikmet Hajiyev, senior adviser to Azerbaijan's president, Ilham Aliyev, accused Armenian forces of launching "deliberate and targeted" attacks along the front line.[17]
The Armenian Defence Ministry said the Azerbaijani offensive, also aimed at Stepanakert, began at 08:10 local time (04:10 GMT).[18] The self-proclaimed Republic of Artsakh introduced martial law and total mobilization of its male population.[19] On the same day Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev addressed the nation concerning the clashes.[20] In the afternoon martial law and curfew was also introduced in Azerbaijan. The martial law in Azerbaijan is effective from midnight, 28 September, while the curfew is effective in Baku, major cities and some regions from 21:00 to 06:00 local time. In the clashes the Azerbaijani military deployed tanks, artillery, missile systems and aircraft near the front line and went deeper into Armenian-occupied territory.[2] Civilians in Nagorno-Karabah have been urged to go into shelters.[2] According to Artsrun Hovhannisyan, in the morning Azerbaijani armed forces also attacked in the direction of Vardenis on the territory of Armenia proper.[21] By the afternoon on 27 September Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense reported the retaking of six villages in Nagorno-Karabakh: Garakhanbayli, Garvand, Horadiz, Yuxarı Əbdürrəhmanlı, Aşağı Əbdürrəhmanlı, Boyuk Marjanli and Nuzgar.[22] The Ministry of Defence of Artsakh denied these claims saying the "The statement issued by the Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan that the Azerbaijani army allegedly occupied 6 settlements does not correspond with reality" and "is the usual provocative information [churned out] by the Azerbaijani propaganda machine."[23] Also, in the afternoon Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense reported the takeover of a mountain peak in the Murovdag range.[24]
Casualties
A woman and a child were killed by Azerbaijani shelling of civilian settlements in Martuni province in Nagorno-Karabakh, the country's human rights advocate Artak Beglaryan said on 27 September. According to him, schools have been shelled, and there is large-scale damage to civilian infrastructure in many settlements.[1] According to Beglaryan, "In Stepanakert alone, there are more than 10 injured, including children and women".[25] The Azerbaijani Ministry of Defence denied these claims.[26] Prosecutor General of the Republic of Azerbaijan, in a statement repored that "a total of 19 civilians were hospitalized with various injuries" as of 27 September.[5] According to the prosecutor general, "Gurbanov Elbrus Isa oglu, a resident of Qaşaltı Qaraqoyunlu, Naftalan, and four members of his family were killed as a result of artillery fire by Armenian Armed Forces."[4]
According to Azerbaijan, it destroyed 12 Armenian 9K33 Osa anti-aircraft units[27] and lost one helicopter, thought its crew survived the shootdown.[3] Armenia claimed the elimination of four Azerbaijani helicopters, ten tanks and IFVs, as well as 15 drones.[28]
