Azerbaijan evicts Russian journalists reporting on panic in border towns

PanARMENIAN.Net - LifeNews Russian news channel reporters were evicted from Azerbaijan.

According to Azeri Foreign Ministry spokesman Hikmet Hajiev, the reporters were not accredited to act in the territory of the republic, also “distorting” the actual situation by providing “biased” reports, Minval.az said.

Hajiev went on to accuse LifeNews of “misinforming” the public about the Nagorno Karabakh conflict.

As LifeNews reported earlier, the inhabitants of Azerbijan’s border-adjacent Terter are fleeing the city in panic; many are sleeping in their cars scared to return to their homes.
