On October 4, the Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan shared videos of new strikes on Armenian troops in the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh.
The strikes, which were carried out with combat drones and loitering munitions, targeted the following equipment:
- 2 2S3 Akatsiya self-propelled howitzers;
- 2 T-72 battle tanks;
- 1 BM-21 multiple rocket launcher;
- 1 military truck.
The Azerbaijani MoD’s videos also show a rocket strike on Armenian forces’ positions and an attack on an ammunition depot in Nagorno-Karabakh.
The strikes seen in the second video were all carried out with loitering munitions. The Azerbaijani military is known to be operating at least two types of Israeli-made loitering munitions, the IAI Harop that has a range of 1,000 km and a 23 kg warhead and Elbit Systems’ SkyStriker that has a 20 km range and 5 kg warhead.
Despite sustaining heavy losses as a result of Azerbaijani aerial attacks, Armenian forces in Nagorno-Karabakh continue to show fierce resistance.
