Providing youth employment, "restoration" in Icheri Sheher, and opening of the Neftchilar park are the leading topics of today's media.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes about the problem of youth employment, noting about a sharp decrease in the level of unemployment among this category of the population. According to the International Labor Organization, Azerbaijan ranks 10th in terms of youth employment. The author of the article claims that annually, on average, up to 100 thousand young people are involved in the labor market. In 2018, 39% of the economically active population accounted for young people aged 15-29.
The website Modern.az writes about the "reconstruction" held in Icheri Sheher, which threatens its historical identity. MP Fazil Mustafa notes that if they dismantle a fortress wall and build a café in its place, then what kind of protection of a historical monument can we talk about? The attitude to this historic gem can only be regretted, the MP said.
The website Azpolitika.info writes about Neftchilar Park, which was opened in the Garachukhur settlement on April 18. The problem is that the park is deprived of lighting, so it plunges into darkness with the onset of evening dusk, and people simply cannot walk in darkness. It turns out that they are deprived of an elementary rest in the evenings. The article says that the head of the executive power of the Surakhani district, Ilgar Abbasov, does not deal not only with the park, but also with the communal problems of the entire Surakhani district of the capital. Although he reports to the President about the absence of any problems with water, gas and light, residents complain that in the Garachukhur "East Massif" the water supply problem is not solved at all. The problem is exacerbated before the onset of summer and is not solved. -0-

Amid the bustling scenes of this year’s COP29 climate conference, a protest against whaling and deep-sea mining, organized by a group calling itself the FINS Initiative, drew significant attention from delegates and observers. However, questions have arisen about the legitimacy of the group, as an internet search yields little evidence of its existence beyond scattered mentions.

In the last two days, a "news" story appeared on TikTok about a whale spotted on Baku's seaside boulevard. The most "observant" users posted videos, commenting on the size of the animal. Later, other "witnesses" claimed it wasn't a whale, but a shark. Even later, a version emerged suggesting it was a submarine.
