Armenia has returned an Azerbaijani soldier
Ruslan Panakhov, the Azerbaijani serviceman who was detained by Armenian forces after getting lost in adverse weather conditions on February 28, has safely returned to Azerbaijan.
Panakhov arrived at Baku airport on Tuesday, accompanied by Azerbaijani officials. Speaking to reporters upon his return, Panakhov reassured the public, stating that he feels fine after the ordeal.
The Investigative Committee of Armenia announced on Monday that the criminal prosecution against Panakhov has been terminated. According to the committee, the decision was made after receiving factual information indicating that Panakhov had inadvertently strayed near Armenian positions due to being disoriented in the challenging weather conditions.
The Azerbaijani Defense Ministry had previously reported that Panakhov went missing on February 28 while navigating between positions in the Lachin district during inclement weather.

The court records from the trial of Teymur Kerimov, the head of the YouTube channel Kanal-11, were falsified, the declaration distributed by Kerimov's colleagues. “The court documents are distorted. They misrepresented the testimony of citizens. For instance, the victim Leila Almaszadeh stated in court that she had no complaints against me. In court, she said, “Teymur did not ask me for money and did not receive any money from me.” However, the court protocol states that she is complaining about me and demands the removal of illegally recorded videos,” writes Kerimov.
