Azerbaijan said a construction worker was killed by shrapnel in the town of Shusha and another civilian in the Aghdam district."Illegal Armenian armed forces must raise the white flag," Azerbaijan's presidency said.
"There is currently a real danger of mass turmoil in the Republic of Armenia," it said in a statement, vowing to take"effective measures" to maintain constitutional order. In a televised address, Pashinyan warned:"We must not allow certain people, certain forces to deal a blow to the Armenian state. Relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia have been tense since 1991 when the Armenian military occupied Karabakh, a territory internationally recognised as part of Azerbaijan, and seven adjacent regions.
