This afternoon, Levon Andreasyan, 85, resident of the Armenian village of Movses, Tavush Region, was wounded with a bullet of an Azerbaijani sniper, said Artsrun Ovannisyan, the spokesman for the Ministry of Defence (MoD) of Armenia.
According to his story, the villager worked on his land plot, when the sniper shot him. The wounded old man was taken to the regional hospital in the town of Berd.
"Andreasyan's life is out of danger; he was exposed to preliminary examination, after which it was decided to take him to Yerevan," a hospital source told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent, adding that the victim was shot in his knee.
So far, no reaction has been reported of the Azerbaijani party to the statement of the Armenia's MoD about the attack on the villager.
