Azerbaijan says seven of its soldiers killed in border clashes with Armenia

MOSCOW (Reuters) – Azerbaijan’s defence ministry said on Wednesday seven of its soldiers were killed and another 10 wounded in border clashes with Armenia on Nov. 16.

Armenia and Azerbaijan agreed on Tuesday to a ceasefire at their border, the Armenian defence ministry said, after Russia urged them to step back from confrontation following the deadliest clash since a war last year.
