National Security Service of Artsakh Addresses Rumors of Russian Peacekeepers Wounding Askeran Resident

The National Security Service of Artsakh reports that the news of Russian peacekeepers allegedly wounding a resident of Askeran is false.

“Today, information was circulated in the Facebook group ‘КУПИ ПРОДАИ́ В АРЦАХЕ’ claiming that Russian peacekeepers had wounded an Askeran resident, alongside publishing a photograph of a man with injuries on the left side of his face. In reality, this information was published through illegal access to a Facebook user’s page and does not reflect the truth; the circulated photograph was taken from the internet, and the person depicted is not a citizen of the Republic of Artsakh. We urge everyone to refrain from disseminating unverified information and to rely solely on official statements,” the report added.
