BBC: Armenia loses positions in deadly border clash
A number of Armenian soldiers have been killed and captured in a flare-up of violence on the border with Azerbaijan.
Armenia's defence ministry confirmed the losses.
Officials said two combat positions had been lost and that it had asked Russia to help defend its territorial sovereignty.
Azerbaijan made big gains in a six-week war fought last year over the disputed territory of Nagorno-Karabakh.
Tensions have remained since the conflict ended in a shaky peace deal.
