“Due to the unsuitability and poor quality of the enemy’s military equipment, three of the missiles fired did not explode,” said in a statement.

In turn, the Ministry of Defense of Armenia debunked the Azerbaijani statement claiming that Yerevan uses Tochka-U tactical missile to target Azerbaijan.

“The claims of Azerbaijani officials, alleging that Armenia fires Tochka-U systems at Azerbaijani territory, are lies and are false. Despite the fact that Azerbaijan has been attacking settlements near Vardenis with drones and artillery for several days already, not a single missile has been fired from Armenia at Azerbaijan yet,” the Armenian Ministry said.
