Defense Ministry urges mass media not to succumb to provocations
The ministry recommends media representatives not to succumb to enemy`s provocation and disseminate verified official information only.

The information including the full names of several soldiers of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces allegedly killed on Sept.28, which was released by some e-media outlets of Armenia, is absolutely baseless, said a statement from the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry on Sept.29.

According to the ministry, such cheap and absurd information is simply aimed at deceiving the Armenian people, and it proves that the enemy is in low psychological spirits.

The ministry noted that the persons, whose names are mentioned in the information, are not listed in the Azerbaijani Armed Forces.

The defense ministry is regularly informing the public about developments on the frontline and also issued an official statement about servicemen killed in recent battles on the frontline, said the statement.

“Such news is part of a special propaganda of the Armenian side, and some local electronic media outlets are involved in these activities. The ministry won’t comment on delusions of the Armenian side and some local media outlets that are looking for sensation. So, we again recommend representatives of the media outlets not to succumb to the enemy’s provocations and disseminate verified official information only,” said the statement.
