Moscow declared yesterday military action took place between Azerbaijan and Armenia in the province of Nagorno Karabakh, an Armenian separatist enclave in Azerbaijan involving artillery, helicopters and tanks to claim the disputed border.
The New York Times talked about an escalation in the conflicts as ethnic differences and historical grievances have never really stopped the tension between both countries.
This time the conflict seems to be close to a declaration of war with Azerbaijan that captured seven villages and surrounded an unspecified number of Armenian while Armenia claimed to have destroyed Azerbaijani tanks and helicopters.
