Defense Ministry refutes Azeri claims of Armenian hostages

February 23, 2013 – 18:24 AMT

PanARMENIAN.Net – Information circulating in Azeri forums, suggesting
Azerbaijani armed forces have captured 8 soldiers while preventing an
Armenian-organized attack is false, Armenian Defense Ministry
spokesman said.
As Artsrun Hovhannisyan told PanARMENIAN.Net `let them show at least
one hostage if they claim to have captured 8. That’s what we do.
Armenian side always openly announces about Azeri solders taken
hostage.’
