The representative of the Azerbaijani Diaspora in Derbent, Gani Panayev, attended a meeting with the Azerbaijani delegation. He confirmed that today 250 people will cross the border.
Panayev said that officials from the Ministry of Emergencies and the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Azerbaijan intend to increase the number of tents to accommodate another 50-60 people.
"In addition, the Azerbaijani Ministry of Emergencies will deploy two kitchen tents, each of which can serve 450 people. This is done in case there is an influx of visitors. The Ministry of Emergency Situations takes care of these tents," Panayev said, adding that the Azerbaijani party agreed to work together with local authorities. -06B-
