The 100 tons of food donated within the framework of the “Hayastan” Fund’s program to provide urgent humanitarian assistance to Artsakh is currently in the city of Goris, and due to Azerbaijan’s blockade of the only road connecting Artsakh to Armenia, it is impossible to deliver it to Artsakh. This was reported by the Ministry of Social Development and Migration of Artsakh.
Negotiations are being conducted with the command of the Russian peacekeeping forces to deliver the humanitarian cargo to the Republic of Artsakh in the current crisis situation.
Should it become possible to transport the cargo, it will be stored at the Ministry of Social Development and Migration of the Republic of Artsakh and distributed free of charge to socially vulnerable groups, according to the ministry’s lists.
“In the aforementioned situation, we consider the dissemination of manipulative information on this topic via the internet and among the population unacceptable, as it pursues the goal of clearly misleading the public,” the ministry’s statement said.
