He got in "QAZ66" car along with his soldier friends and went to Qazanchi village. They came face to face with the enemy's PDM and infantries 5 kilometers across the village. Armenian gangsters started firing at them heavily and Rovshen ordered his colleagues to retreat to the nearby woods. But he himself was covering his friends in the battle. It was a battle of life and death with the enemy. Despite of being severely wounded first in his arm and then in his leg, he would not put his gun down. And even though his friends took him to the hospital, it was too late. Rovshen had lost too much blood already and he closed his eyes forever.
