The Azeri government announced a unilateral ceasefire on Sunday, after clashes erupted with Armenian forces in Nagorno-Karabakh, however reports indicate that the violence continued.
"Azerbaijan, showing goodwill, has decided to unilaterally cease hostilities," Azerbbaijan's defence ministry said in a statement, warning that it would retaliate if its forces were attacked.

"Fierce fighting is under way on south-eastern and north-eastern sectors of the Karabakh frontline," he said.
