Baku: The Azerbaijani Defence Ministry said they carried out airstrikes against Armenian military targets on Saturday night and Sunday morning.
It came after Armenia and Azerbaijan agreed to a Russia-brokered cease-fire in Nagorno-Karabakh starting Saturday.
However, both immediately accused each other of derailing the deal intended to end the worst outbreak of hostilities in the separatist region in more than a quarter-century.
