Media Review for July 13

The main topic of today's media and Internet resources was the July 12 clash on the Armenian-Azerbaijani state border in the Tovuz direction.

In a statement by the Ministry of Defense, these actions of Armenia are called provocative. The enemy was dealt a heavy blow, said Deputy Minister of Defense for Logistics, Nizam Osmanov.

As a result of the clash, 3 were killed and 4 military personnel of Azerbaijan were wounded. On the night of July 13, the situation was again aggravated.

The website Yenisabah.az discusses the situation in the drug market with economist Azer Mehdiyev. The latter claims that the cost of drugs is growing rapidly every day.

Currently, there are serious problems with the composition of drugs, as well as their variety and price.

Instead of eliminating monopoly in this area, on the contrary, the entire drug market was handed over to two or three oligarchs. The economist believes that prices in the drug market need to be liberalized.

The website Redaktor.az discusses the situation on public transport. Since July 4, the metro has been closed due to the spread of coronavirus for 2 weeks.

The Baku Transport Agency announced regular monitoring to identify which bus stops are the most crowded, and the number of buses is increasing in these areas.
