    Azerbaijan offers to hand over remains of Armenian soldiers.

Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan said on Wednesday that the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) mission is expected to arrive this Thursday at the  Armenia-Azerbaijan border, the site of recent violent clashes which saw the loss of tens of troops on both sides. 

"Our request was duly discussed at a meeting of the CSTO Council, a decision was made to send a mission, and we hope that the mission will arrive tomorrow," Mirzoyan said, despite the recent invocation of article 4 of the CSTO charter to evict Azeri troops from Armenia's territory and restore the territorial integrity of the Republic of Armenia after Blinken had promised to provide US assistance to Armenia. 

The mission headed by the Secretary-General is sent to Armenia to estimate the situation due to reescalation on the Armenia-Azerbaijan border.

Meanwhile, Azerbaijan has proposed to return the bodies of 100 Armenian servicemen who died in the recent clashes after a failed attempt of keeping a ceasefire intact.

"Azerbaijan calls for a ceasefire and is ready to unilaterally hand over the bodies of 100 Armenian servicemen to Armenia," Azerbaijan's state commission on prisoners of war said in a statement.

On its part, Baku said the Armenian military fired at the positions of the Azerbaijani troops on the border, resulting in a clash. The Azerbaijani Defense Ministry also reported losses in its ranks, without specifying them.
