Azerbaijani Defense Ministry refutes reports on army advance

The Azeri media outlets seem to compete with each other, each trying to post the most absurd reports about the “advances of the Azerbaijani army.”

Thus, news reports Monday, Aug 4, about the alleged seizure of Aghdam and Fizuli were immediately refuted by the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry, which described the information as “ungrounded rumors.”

Nevertheless, some news agencies reported Tuesday about the advance of the Azeri army in Fizuli and Aghdam direction.

Commenting on the above mentioned, head of the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry’s press office, colonel Vagif Dargyahly said that “any information regarding the development in the conflict zone will be published on the ministry’s official website.”

“Any other information will be left without comment,” he said.
