Armenian and Azerbaijani forces clashed Tuesday with heavy artillery and drones, leaving at least 16 people dead on both sides, including an Azerbaijani general, in the worst outbreak of hostilities in years, AP reports.
The two neighbours have been locked in a ‘frozen conflict’ over Nagorno-Karabakh, a region of Azerbaijan that has been under the control of ethnic Armenian forces, backed by Armenia, since a war there ended in 1994. /EUobserver
