Per Armenia: Azerbaijani claim: |
On 12 September 2022, a series of clashes erupted between Armenian and Azerbaijani troops along the Armenia–Azerbaijan border, marking a major escalation in the 2021–2022 Armenia–Azerbaijan border crisis[11][12] and resulting in nearly 300 deaths and dozens injured from both sides at the third day of the shelling.[13][14][15][16][17] Both sides blamed each other for the escalation.[18][19][20] The Armenian Defense Ministry said Azerbaijan had attacked Armenian positions near the cities of Vardenis, Goris, Sotk, and Jermuk with artillery and heavy weapons and that it had occupied certain areas of its territory,[21][19][20] which were later confirmed by satellite images from NASA.[22] The Azerbaijani Defence Ministry said that Armenia had staged "large-scale provocations" near the Dashkasan, Kalbajar, and Lachin regions and that it had captured multiple strategic heights on the border region inside Armenia.[23][24][4][25][20]
The clashes along the border stem mainly from the ongoing Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. Russia said on 13 September that it had brokered a ceasefire, but both sides confirmed it was broken minutes after coming into effect.[26][27][28] At least 135 Armenian servicemen were killed, according to a report by Armenian prime minister Nikol Pashinyan.[7][29] Azerbaijan acknowledged 80 fatalities among its forces,[5] bringing total number of the killed to at least 214. On 14 September, Armenia and Azerbaijan brokered a new ceasefire.[30][31]
The clashes erupted shortly after the Russian military suffered serious setbacks in the Ukrainian Kharkiv counteroffensive during its invasion of Ukraine, weakening its force projection in the region.[32][33] Efforts by the European Union (EU) to secure more gas from Azerbaijan to compensate for the loss of imports from Russia also weakened the EU's ability to mediate the clashes.[34][35][36]
Background
On 12 May 2021, Azerbaijani soldiers crossed several kilometers into Armenia in the provinces of Syunik and Gegharkunik and occupied about 41 square kilometres (16 sq mi) of Armenian territory.[37][38][39][40] The European Parliament, as well as the United States and France – two of the three co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group – called on Azerbaijan to withdraw its troops from internationally recognised Armenian territory.[41][42]
Further clashes took place in July 2021 and in November 2021, with casualties being reported from both sides. In a joint statement on 17 November 2021, EU rapporteurs called the military operation launched by Azerbaijan on 16 November 2021 the worst violation to date of the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh ceasefire agreement.[43]
Timeline
12–13 September
On the evening of 12 September, the Armenian Ministry of Defense reported that units of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces had started firing intensively with artillery and heavy weapons in the direction of Armenian positions and civilian areas in Goris, Artanish, Sotk, Jermuk, Kapan, and Ishkhanasar. The Armenian MoD also mentioned that the Azerbaijani side had used UAVs, and was undertaking positional advancement operations in some directions.[44] The Azerbaijani Defence Ministry said that Armenia had staged "large-scale provocations" near the Dashkasan, Kalbajar, and Lachin regions and had laid mines along the army's supply roads. The Azerbaijani MoD reported that they were taking measures to "suppress the firing points of the Armenian armed forces and to prevent the expansion of the scale of the confrontation".[45]
Russia announced on 13 September that it had brokered a ceasefire, but both sides confirmed that it was broken minutes after coming into effect.[26][27][28]
On 13 September at 14:00, the Armenian MoD announced that the situation in some parts of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border continues to be extremely tense as Azerbaijan continues to attempt positional advances, particularly in the direction of Nerkin Hand, Verin Shorzha, Artanish and Sotk. The Armenian MFA also stated that as a result of Azerbaijani shelling, many residential houses were damaged in the village of Kut, while women and children were evacuated.[46] Armenia’s Health Ministry stated that three civillians had been injured as a result of Azerbaijani shelling on civillian areas on the first day of the attack.[47] According to Armenian prime minister Nikol Pashinyan, at least 135 Armenian servicemen were killed.[7] The Azerbaijani MoD announced the death of 80 of its servicemen,[5] 42 of whom were members of the Azerbaijani Army while 8 were from the State Border Service.[48]
14–16 September

In the morning of 14 September, the Azerbaijani MoD reported that the Armenian Armed Forces had fired mortars and artillery at Azerbaijani army units stationed in the Kelbajar and Lachin directions during the night and that the army was taking "adequate retaliatory measures".[50] The Armenian MoD called this "another disinformation" which "serves as an information base for carrying out military aggression against the sovereign territory of the Republic of Armenia".[51] Armenian MoD also reported that Azerbaijan was shelling Jermuk and Verin Shorzha, using artillery, mortars and large-caliber small arms.[52] At 11 a.m., the Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense and the Prosecutor General's Office issued a joint statement claiming that two Azerbaijani civilians had been injured as a result of the Armenian Armed Forces' shelling.[6]
Nikol Pashinyan said that Azerbaijan had taken control over certain areas of Armenian territory. Pashinyan added that Armenia had applied to Article 4 of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) for the first time in Armenian history.[21]
On that same day, an Armenian security official said that they agreed to a ceasefire between Armenia and Azerbaijan.[30][31]
According to The Moscow Times, Putin rejected Armenian PM Pashinyan's request for military assistance: Armenia is a party to the Russian-led Collective Security Treaty Organization, the members of which have taken the obligation to assist each other in case of military aggression.[53]
On 16 September, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev told Putin that the escalation has been stabilized.[54]
According to an Armenian MP, Armenia has regained control over six previously lost positions on the border.[55]
Alleged misconduct
Azerbaijan is holding at least 7 Armenian POWs, but video evidence suggests the number to be higher.[56]
The footage circulating on Telegram depicts a female Armenian soldier who was mutilated by Azerbaijani forces. The video shows the woman naked, with words written across her breasts and stomach. A stone has been inserted in her eye socket, and a severed finger has been placed in her mouth.[57] The General Staff of the Armenian Armed Forces states that "the Azerbaijani armed forces committed atrocities after infiltrating into Armenia’s territory; they have dismembered a woman service member, cut off her legs, fingers and stripped her naked".[58]
Infrastructure damage
According to the preliminary data published by Armenia's Deputy Minister of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure, as a result of Azerbaijani shelling, 192 residential houses were damaged in the Armenian provinces of Syunik, Gegharkunik and Vayots Dzor with 60 of them being completely damaged.[59] Human Rights Defender of Armenia stated that more than 7,500 people had been displaced from their homes.[60] On September 14, it was reported that Azerbaijani missiles had also struck a Russian FSB office in Gegharkunik Province.[61]
According to Hayk Kostanyan, Armenia Emergency Situations Ministry’s spokesperson, Azerbaijan's shelling caused forest fires in Jermuk.[62] At a UN Security Council meeting, Armenia's permanent representative Mher Margaryan condemned Azerbaijan's attack on Jermuk saying: "The shelling of the resort town of Jermuk, which has absolutely no military targets is nothing short of war crime, and so are the strikes against the Kechut water reservoir, with potentially catastrophic human toll and environmental impact".[63] On September 16, the heads of diplomatic missions and international organizations accredited in Armenia arrived in Jermuk to get acquainted with the consequences of the shellings.[64]
Effects
Cancelled events
In Azerbaijan, in connection with the death of the military personnel of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces, solemn events dedicated to the "Knowledge Day" and "National Music Day" were canceled,[65][66] the Azerbaijan Weightlifting Championship among youth was postponed.[67] Ukrainian singer Max Barskih cancelled his upcoming concert in Azerbaijan's capital Baku stating that "any country that launches aggression against another country is no place for my concerts".[68]
Protests in Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/15/Protest_in_front_of_National_Assembly_of_Armenia%2C_13_September_2022.png/220px-Protest_in_front_of_National_Assembly_of_Armenia%2C_13_September_2022.png)
On 14 September, protests erupted in Armenia's capital, Yerevan, and in Stepanakert, the capital of the self-proclaimed Republic of Artsakh calling for Nikol Pashinyan's resignation over his statements about a potential peace agreement with Azerbaijan, adding that the deal would cause them to be "criticized, cursed, called traitors".[69]
In Yerevan, protesters attempted to take down a barrier and access the parliament building, but were prevented by authorities, who decided to weld the gate. One opposition leader, Karin Tonoyan, urged protesters to start blockading government buildings and also issued a call for a nationwide strike.[70] The protesters chanted "Nikol the traitor".[71] Protesters near Yerevan's parliament building called on deputies to come to their offices and impeach Pashinyan. Former Armenian Defense Minister Seyran Ohanyan reported that 35 opposition MPs signed a document to begin the impeachment procedure against Pashinyan. On the night of 15 September, opposition MPs proceeded to the parliament building to begin the impeachment process against Pashinyan, and were joined by demonstrators.[72] Protests were also held in the second largest city of Armenia, Gyumri, where the protest was much smaller and quieter.
In Stepanakert, thousands of protesters gathered to demand the resignation of the government in Armenia. The president of the self-proclaimed republic, Arayik Harutyunyan, responded to the protests by making a statement in which he rejected the prospect of Nagorno-Karabakh being part of Azerbaijan under any status, saying "the people of Artsakh decide their own destiny in their own homeland". He later added assurances that the negotiation process was not at a stage where a document would be signed any time soon, and affirmed that he had an agreement with the Armenian government that any such document signed by them "must take into account Artsakh's interests and the opinion of the people of the republic". [69]
Sports
On September 15, Qarabağ FK requested from UEFA that a minute of silence to be observed in honor of the fallen Azerbaijani soldiers during the Europa League group stage match against FC Nantes in Baku.[73] The head of the press service of the club, Gunduz Abbaszadeh, stated that such a move was not allowed by UEFA. Following that, the team's largest fan group, İmarət Tayfa, published a statement calling on everyone to observe a minute of silence after the starting whistle to respect the memories of the deceased Azerbaijani soldiers.[74] It was quickly distributed to a large number of users on the social network. Despite UEFA's ruling, approximately 30,000 spectators[74] turned on their phones' flashlights and observed a minute of silence following the starting whistle.[75]
Analysis
Motive
Asbarez, an Armenian-American newspaper, reported that Azerbaijan's aim was to establish a land corridor to its Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic exclave and neighbouring Turkey, effectively taking over the Armenia-Iran border. Iran warned the leaders of Russia and Turkey that it would oppose any such action to change its border with Armenia.[76]
Reactions
Countries
United States Secretary of State Antony Blinken expressed concern over the clashes and urged both nations to end new hostilities immediately, followed by a phone call with Ilham Aliyev to express concern over conflict along the Armenia–Azerbaijan border, including Azerbaijani shelling in Armenia, and asked President Aliyev to cease Azerbaijani hostilities.[77]
- Spokesperson for the United States Department of State Ned Price stated that the U.S. was reviewing evidence of Azerbaijani shelling inside Armenia, which has caused "significant damage to Armenian infrastructure," and stressed the need for both parties to end hostilities and agree to a broader de-escalation.[78]

[81]
Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavuşoğlu condemned "Armenian aggression" and the new Armenian offensive against Azerbaijan, and voiced support for further negotiations.[82]
The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs called on both parties to adhere to the Russian-brokered ceasefire of 13 September. It refrained from saying who Russia saw as responsible for the escalation. It also stated that the dispute between Armenia and Azerbaijan should be resolved through purely political and diplomatic means.[83]

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cyprus condemned the Azerbaijani assault against Armenian positions.[88]
The Ministry of External Affairs of India called upon "the aggressor side to immediately cease hostilities".[89]
The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Kazakhstan Mukhtar Tleuberdi released a statement saying "We must proceed from the fact that the border between Azerbaijan and Armenia is not delimited, so it's hard to talk about any violation of the border".[90][91]
China's Permanent Representative to the UN Zhang Jun urged restraint in the conflict and called for a resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh issue based on mutual dialogue.[92]
Iran's Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian told a representative from Azerbajian that the border between Iran and Armenia must remain unchanged and called on both sides to show restraint.[93]

- Freedom House called on Azerbaijan to "cease their deadly attacks" on Armenian targets and return to peace negotiations, stating that "military attacks on sovereign nations have no place in the rules-based international order".[97]
- Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention, which had issued a red flag alert for Azerbaijan's "genocidal ideology and practices" in August 2022,[98] condemned Azerbaijan for its "war of aggression".[99][100]
