"The information spread by Armenia about allegedly Azerbaijani Army units on May 17, around 4:15 p.m., fired at the positions of the Armenian armed forces located in the Zod direction of Basarkechar district is completely false, we categorically deny this," the Ministry of Defence told APA.
"Note that there is thick fog in that area since daytime hours. In such limited visibility, it is impossible for our units to fire on the other side," said the Ministry.
