karabakh is a mountainous area and the armenian positions are on high ground generally. lowland positions which include villages and small towns so civilians and military installations kind of all mixed up together and that's why the risk of civilian casualties is so high and so great on both sides but this really does suggest that something more is going on here than simply an exchange of fire that has been so frequent between both sides for so many years back in july 17 people were killed in a few days of skirmishes the armenians said that they had ripped riposte and. sold now the armenians are saying that it looks as if these aires are carrying out a full scale operation to try perhaps to take back karabakh by force but as is always the case the is aries claiming that it's actually conducting a counter offensive and that it was the armenians that started this latest round of fighting and where hearing of artillery being used drones helicopters. tanks we've seen those pictures that the armenians have released of tanks apparently being struck by their by their munitions

. what is at the heart of this dispute over nagorno-karabakh. the soviet union. armenia and azerbaijan were part of the soviet union. the war has not ended. there was a cessation of hostilities and a ceasefire in 1994, and the conflict was, for a large part, not frozen, but it wasn't full—blown war. for years now, attention has been building up. there was some hope, with the election of the prime minister in armenia, but those hopes seemed to be dashed. this fighting is by far the most serious we have seen since the most serious we have seen since the ceasefire. or it has the potential to be. in 2016, there were clashes in april that resulted in the deaths of 200 soldiers from both sides. but this, the fighting now, appears to be taking place across a far bigger geographic area, and the volume of reporting coming from the front line appears to suggest that this could develop into something far more serious. you mentioned that the local government, nagorno—karabakh, declared the local government, nagorno—kara bakh, declared martial law. just rece
