The officials labelled the data spread by Azerbaijani media about the seizure of some settlements in Nagorno-Karabakh and large losses by the Armenian side as misinformation.
"The information disseminated by different Azerbaijani media saying that the Azerbaijani armed forces captured some regions of Nagorno-Karabakh and that the Armenian side lost its weapons, dozens items of military equipment and registered hundreds of human victims is false and does not correspond to reality," a statement released by the Press Secretary of Armenian Defense Ministry Artsrun Ovhannisyan said.
On April 2, the frozen conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia escalated, with armed clashes resuming and both sides accusing each other of violating the ceasefire that has been in place since 1994.
Nagorno-Karabakh is a disputed region in the South Caucasus, which is formally part of Azerbaijan, but largely populated by Armenians. The territory acts as a self-administrating province, but is not recognized as a country by the international community.
Nagorno-Karabakh is located on the Armenia-Azerbaijan border and has been a subject to several violent clashes between both countries.
