It is on this basis that the Council of the European Union, with the agreement of the Armenian authorities, has decided to deploy a transitional planning support team from the EU monitoring mission in Georgia to Armenia to increase security awareness and contribute to the planning and preparation of the new civilian mission.

❗️ On the basis of RA's application, the UN Security Council will discuss the situation in the Lachin Corridor. [RA MFA spokesperson]

🔸️ Artsakh remains blocked. Although there are calls from different places, claiming that the road is open, but it is not, because Azerbaijanis are left on the sides of the road, and can stop the cars whenever they want.
🔸️ They should come out completely and not obstruct the movement of cars. That is the only acceptable decision because if we accept that they can stand there and decide what car to leave and what car not to leave, it becomes an opportunity to create a checkpoint. [State Minister of Artsakh Ruben Vardanyan]

📌 An extended session of the Artsakh Security Council was called, the agenda of which was the military-political situation in Artsakh.
📌 The steps taken for the security of Artsakh and people's livelihood, and the possibilities of preventing a humanitarian disaster were discussed.

🇦🇿 "Environmental activists" of Azerbaijan have taken responsibility for checking humanitarian cargo and are preventing the unhindered passage of cargo through the Lachin Corridor. Basically, they have illegally reserved customs duties. This nonsense has to be stoped! [Edmon Marukyan, RA Ambassador-at-Large]

🇦🇿 A video is shared on Azerbaijani Telegram channels, where emergency vehicles are seen moving accompanied by Red Cross vehicles. "An ambulance accompanied by the Red Cross passed through the corridor of Lachin again," it is noted on the channels next to the video.
❌ In a conversation with Infocom, Zara Amatuni, the head of ICRC communication programs in Armenia, said that after yesterday, no new medical patients were transferred from Artsakh to Armenia.
🚑 If we look carefully, we will see that in yesterday's videos, emergency aid and ICRC vehicles are moving in one direction, and in today's videos, in the opposite direction.
📌 Taking into account that the vehicle registration plates of the three passing cars are the same, we can assume that the cars transported by the patient to Armenia yesterday are returning through the corridor.
