Azerbaijan denies rumors on Armenia’s occupation of Nakchivan
By Nazrin Gadimova
Azerbaijan's Defense Ministry denied as baseless any reports on Armenia's occupation of heights in Nakhchivan.
"The reports, which are incorrect and full of errors with photos taken at an undisclosed location attached, are another attempt of the Armenian government to mislead the public," the ministry said.
Referring to Armenian sources, some local online media spread information and photos that the enemy occupied Azerbaijani territories in Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic on June 19.
Azerbaijan's Defense Ministry said only Armenia is interested in disseminating such information. "It is a provocative attempt by Armenia to create confusion among the public," it said.
Operational situation in Nakhchivan AR is fully controlled by the combined-arms army and there is no redeployment on the frontline. The Ministry again advised the media not to succumb to such Armenian lies and not to publish baseless news spread by the Armenians.
