At 6:30 p.m., May 26, servicemen of the N military unit of the RA Ministry of Defense, Harutyun Hovagimyan and Karen Ghazaryan, transported food to one of the combat positions of the same military unit, located in the southeastern direction of RA, with a Kamaz 43114. On their way back, communication with them was lost.
As a result of the conducted search operation, the vehicle was found on the road leading to the combat position, in the area behind the positions of the RA Armed Forces, with the engine running. One AK-74 assault rifle was found in the vehicle, but the two servicemen were not found. The Investigative Committee reports that according to preliminary data, the enemy’s armed group crossed the RA border and kidnapped the servicemen.
Taking into account that there are elements of criminal acts of illegal crossing of the RA state border, kidnapping of servicemen, transfer against their will or ignoring their will, criminal proceedings have been initiated.
