Bomb disposal teams in the Artsakh capital of Stepanakert have already located and removed several 300mm Smerch missiles from residential areas.

The ordnance will be exploded at a safe location.

The sappers will continue to remove unexploded ordnance from Stepanakert, a town of some 60,000 that has been heavily targeted by Azerbaijani missiles since the start of fighting on September 27.
