Stepanakert, Azerbaijan, Oct 15 (AFP/APP): The capital of the disputed Nagorno-Karabakh region in Azerbaijan was shelled on Thursday, Armenian separatists in the province said, ending a lull in bombardments brought on by a ceasefire.

Emergency services in Karabakh wrote on Facebook that Azerbaijani forces struck “civilian targets” in Stepanakert, in the first confirmed strike on the city since a truce agreed in Moscow last Saturday.
