Ministry of Defense Urges Caution Against Fundraisers Claiming to Support the Army
Recently, various organizations have been organizing fundraising campaigns or offering their services, assuring that a portion of their revenues will be allocated to the army.
A few days ago, Aurora Media also received an invitation to participate in such an initiative. The program proposed to organize a fundraising effort to make the service of soldiers guarding the Talish front line more comfortable. The funds were intended to purchase a water-carrying backpack with field digital camouflage. This information is sourced from the banak info website.
Following the lead of the proposal, Aurora Media confirmed with its source at the Ministry of Defense that the ministry has never endorsed such an initiative. Furthermore, the Ministry of Defense has advised us, as well as the public, to be cautious about such initiatives and fundraising activities.
Additionally, it was recently highlighted by the Tert.am news outlet regarding the operations of the “Army Taxi” company. The aforementioned company claims that a significant portion of its income is directed towards the army. The media discovered that the State Revenue Committee has not conducted any inspections on the mentioned organization, and the owners of “Army Taxi” have not responded to inquiries about how they allocate 80% of their income to the military.
