Azerbaijan Says Its Military Responded To Attack By Armenian Forces In Karabakh
On July 31, Azerbaijan accused Armenia of attacking its military positions in the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh.
In a statement, the Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense said that Armenian forces opened fire at its positions in Gadabay, Kalbajar and Khojavend. The ministry didn’t report any casualties or material losses were as a result of the alleged Armenian attack.
“Starting from the evening of July 30 and during the night of July 31, the Armenian armed forces units using small arms subjected to intensive fire the Azerbaijan Army positions stationed in direction of the Gadabay and Kalbajar regions of the state border.
Moreover, members of illegal Armenian armed detachments in the territory of Azerbaijan, where the Russian peacekeepers are temporarily deployed, using various caliber weapons and sniper rifles subjected to fire at Azerbaijan Army positions in the direction of the Amiranlar settlement of Khojavend region,” the statement reads.
The Azerbaijani MoD added that its troops took “retaliatory measures” after the Armenian attack, without providing any further details.
Armenia denied the Azerbaijan accusations. The Armenian MoD stressed in a statement that the situation in Nagorno-Karabakh is stable.
“The Defense Ministry of Azerbaijan disseminated yet another misinformation by claiming that Armenian forces opened small arms fire towards Azerbaijani positions on eastern and southeastern parts of the Armenian-Azerbaijani border late on July 30. The situation at the Armenian-Azerbaijani border is relatively stable and under total control of Armenian Armed Forces,” the Armenian statement reads.
Hundreds of Russian peacekeepers are currently deployed in Nagorno-Karabakh to enforce a ceasefire agreement that was reached after the large-scale Azerbaijani offensive on Armenian forces in the region in 2020. During the offensive, which claimed the lives of some 7,000 soldiers and civilians from both sides, a large chunk of the region was captured by Azerbaijan.
The situation in Nagorno-Karabakh has been stable since March, which a series of Azerbaijani strikes claimed the lives of three Armenian soldiers.
By accusing Armenia of violating the ceasefire in Nagorno-Karabakh, Azerbaijan may be trying to provide a pretext to resume its military operations in the region while Russia is still preoccupied with its ongoing special military operation in Ukraine.

Prince Charles took Bin Laden family’s money – media
The donation was made after Charles met with two of the terrorist mastermind’s relatives in London
Britain’s Prince Charles “personally secured” a donation of £1 million ($1.2 million) to his charity from the family of Osama bin Laden in 2013, The Times reported on Sunday. The Prince of Wales has only recently been scrutinized for taking “bags of cash” from the Qatari royal family.
Charles “brokered the payment” after a private meeting with Bakr and Shafiq bin Laden at his London residence of Clarence House in October 2013, the paper’s sources claimed. Bakr and Shafiq are half-brothers of Osama Bin Laden, the Al-Qaeda leader and 9/11 mastermind who was shot dead by US special forces in Pakistan two years before the meeting.
According to the Times, Charles agreed to the donation despite objections from his staff and the Prince of Wales Charitable Foundation (PWCF). Charles reportedly opted not to return the money, as to do so would embarrass the brothers.
However, PWCF Chairman Sir Ian Cheshire told the newspaper that all five of the charity’s trustees “wholly” agreed to accept the donation after listening to concerns. Another source told The Guardian that the prince was not urged to return the money, and disputed suggestions that he had personally brokered the deal.
There is no suggestion that Bakr or Shafiq bin Laden have ever financed or been involved in terrorism, The Times pointed out.
The UK Charity Commission dropped an investigation last week into multi-million-pound donations made by the Qatari royal family to the PWCF. British media reported last month that Charles had received shopping bags full of cash totaling over £2.5 million ($3.07 million) during meetings with Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim bin Jaber al Thani between 2011 and 2015. Al Thani served as Qatar’s prime minister between 2007 and 2013.
The Prince of Wales is no stranger to controversy, and his relationship with the Bin Laden family has been questioned before. After being introduced to Bakr at the Oxford Centre of Islamic Studies in 2000, Charles drew condemnation from the British press when he dined with Osama’s brother the following October, less than a month after the 9/11 attacks.
