Evaluation of international events held in Baku, human problems, problem loans, increase in the number of deaths from carbon monoxide are the leading topics of today's press.
The newspaper "Azerbaijan" writes about holding various international events in Baku. In particular, about the opening of the 5th Global Forum in Baku today.
The theme of the current Forum is "The future of international relations: strength and interests". Over 300 guests from 53 countries took part in the event.
The site "Azadliq.info" writes about the increased suicides in the country and the decrease in the number of people dying by natural death. The author lists the most frequent types of deaths - auto accident, non-combat death of soldiers, strangulation from carbon monoxide, food poisoning, torture.
According to the author, to die a natural death has already become a privilege.
"Echo" publishes material on overdue loans, which in fact are by three times larger than official data.
According to official data, the total amount of overdue loans is 1.633.100 manats. Many banks sued debtors, there were even cases of detention of debtors.
Banks themselves are not in a hurry to advertise the real extent of the problem. Bad loans for the bank are ballast, which has a very negative impact on the rating and financial condition of the bank.
"New time" writes about the problem of the death of people from carbon monoxide. A month ago, Azerigaz lawyer openly admitted that Azerbaijani gas does not meet the standards, and the next day he was fired.
Caloric content and gas pressure are extremely low. Sometimes it takes an hour to boil water for tea. In addition, citizens have to let down the air in the cooking stoves for hours, so that the real gas finally arrives.

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.
