border\u00a0remained tense,\u201d it added, restating Armenia\u2019s position that Azerbaijan launched an aggression on its sovereign territory.<\/p>\n<p>On its part, Azerbaijan accused Armenia, which is in a military alliance with Moscow and home to a Russian military base, of firing mortars and artillery against its military units.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur positions are periodically being fired against

accounts from either side.<\/p>\n<p>A full-fledged conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan would risk dragging in powers such as Russia and Turkey and destabilise an important corridor for pipelines
