Artsakh Human Rights Defender Artak Beglaryan issued a statement saying:

“The minister informed that about 30 people have been tested for coronavirus so far and everyone has had a negative result.

As for the spread of misinformation about spouses who arrived from Iran to Artsakh weeks ago, the minister noted that they too have undergone appropriate testing and are under constant surveillance.

In this situation, I attache great importance on both the preventive and the proper public awareness activities. People should be aware of the main risks and mechanisms of prevention, as well as regularly be informed of the situation, so that unjustified negative moods and panic do not arise in society.”

Media expert Samvel Martirosyan informed that the Facebook page named “Bako Sahakyan” was launched by the Azeris. Sseveral years ago it was named “Seyran Ohanyan”.
