Since the signing of the November 10 on the cessation of hostilities in Nagorno-Karabakh, 6 civilians and 6 military servicemen have been killed, 7 civilians and 14 military servicemen injured by landmines, the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Tuesday.

The ministry stressed that as the Armenian army withdrew from occupied Azerbaijani territories, it mined the area around historical and cultural monuments and turned the area into a dangerous zone.
