After the Azerbaijan attack on Monday, with the mediation of the Russian peacekeeping forces, the Azerbaijani army passed a calm day on Tuesday. Azerbaijan’s demand in Tuesday’s talks was the quick withdrawal of the remaining Armenian army and the disarmament of the Armenian militias of the Nagorno-Karabakh based on the 2020 ceasefire agreement. They also demand that no new route be created for Armenians in the Lachin Corridor and they also demand the withdrawal of Russian forces from Lachin. The lack of provision of these items has caused the second round of conflict to begin with the attack of the Azerbaijani army at 9 am on Wednesday, August 3.

On Monday, August 1, the Azerbaijani army planned to capture a number of areas in Nagorno-Karabakh. Although the Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan considers this to be a lie in its statements, field evidence from inside Azerbaijan, the statement of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, the reports of the Armenian and Russian media, and the information headquarters of Nagorno-Karabakh Armenians confirm this issue.
