First Group of Azerbaijani Citizens Able to Return from Dagestan
Baku / 20.05.20 / Turan: Yesterday, the first group of Azerbaijani citizens who previously could not leave Dagestan because of the border closure during the pandemic returned from Dagestan.
The head of the Derbent region, Fuad Shikhiyev, said that the return of the remaining Azerbaijani citizens will occur in stages, TASS reports.
The first group that left mainly included women with children and elderly men.
About 700 Azerbaijani citizens have accumulated in Dagestan, who are accommodated in camp sites, hotels and campgrounds.
