More Red Cross vehicles freely pass via Lachin road

Seven International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) vehicles have safely passed through the Khankendi-Lachin road.

Six passenger cars and one truck drove freely from Khankendi towards Lachin, according to Report.

The Azerbaijani protesters on the site do not impede the movement of traffic used for humanitarian purposes.

A peaceful protest by the Azerbaijani eco-activists on the Khankendi-Lachin road, who are demanding to stop the looting of mineral deposits in Azerbaijan’s Karabakh region, is now in its 58th day.

Following the talks with the commanders of the Russian peacekeeping contingent on December 3 and 7, 2022, a delegation consisting of specialists from the ministries of economy, ecology and natural resources, the State Committee on Property Issues and the gold mining company AzerGold was to conduct preliminary monitoring of illegal exploitation of mineral deposits on the territory of Azerbaijan, where peacekeepers are temporarily deployed, as well as related environmental and other problems. However, due to the peacekeepers’ inactivity, the monitoring did not take place.
