The reported use of "drones" above or across the Nagorno-#Karabakh line of contact is a provocation, OSCE Minsk Group Co- Chair of the U.S. James Warlick said on Tweeter, Friday.
The diplomat urged the parties to defuse tensions: "The sides need to reduce tensions," he wrote.
Earlier on January 29, Defense Ministry of Azerbaijan disseminated a report on alleged destruction of an Armenian drone over the territory of Azerbaijan.
Spokesman of Armenia's Defense Ministry Artsrun Hovhannisyan denied the reports posting the following statement on Facebook: "Naturally, after recent defeats the Azeri propaganda machine needs to record some 'high achievements.' But even a lie must have a limit. So, I will not be surprised that tomorrow they will shoot down an Armenian nuclear submarine or will destroy an Armenian intercontinental ballistic missile. By our reliable data, the Azerbaijani armed forces hit their own drone. The 'colleagues' from Azerbaijan just confused, and I think new reports will come shortly."
