The Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan has officially announced the launch of a “counterattack,” which proves that the actions were planned long ago. Any military with basic knowledge will know that planning a counterattack takes weeks. Minutes after the official announcement of the escalation, the Azeri-Turkish media published materials from the front line, which proves that the provocation initiated by Azerbaijan was planned in advance, writes Shushan Stepanyan, spokeswoman of the Defense Ministry. 

In addition, TRT Haber, a Turkish news station, has a correspondent reporting live on the ground at the line of contact, reinforcing the Ministry of Defense’s claim that the attack was pre-planned, and that Turkey may have played a role in it or that it was aware of the operations.
