On April 23, a conscript, private of the N military unit, Eduard Martirosov, went missing on his way from the military unit to the combat position. A search and rescue operation was launched immediately. As a result of the work carried out with the Azerbaijani military through Russia's mediation, it turned out that Martirosov had crossed the border on the same day in yet unknown circumstances and was held by Azerbaijani forces. The necessary steps are being taken to return Private Martirosov to the Armenian side.
Upon the order of the Minister of RA, an official investigation has been appointed in connection with the incident.
