Azerbaijan condemns online disinformation about military mobilization

Recently, a social media page presenting itself as “Qəzetçi” has been systematically spreading disinformation related to Azerbaijan.

This “resource,” whose apparent aim is to create confusion in public opinion and pollute the country’s information environment from abroad, has circulated false claims alleging that 150 doctors and paramedics have been mobilized for military service and sent to the Astara and Fuzuli districts along the border with Iran, News.Az reports, citing MEDIA.

“We strongly condemn such information provocations and emphasize that such disruptive activities entail legal liability.

We call on all media outlets, journalists, and public activists to rely only on official sources in their work and to refrain from sharing posts that may cause public anxiety,” the agency said.
