ICRC Representatives Visit Armenian Citizens Captured in September

On September 23, representatives of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) visited Armenian citizens detained in Azerbaijan as a result of military operations earlier that month, with their capture confirmed by Azerbaijani authorities.

The visit was conducted in a format of private meetings, and contact was established with the families of the detainees.

According to its mandate, the ICRC assesses the treatment of detained persons and the conditions of their detention during such visits, as well as assists in restoring and maintaining family links.

In line with ICRC procedures, observations and recommendations regarding the visits are communicated only to the relevant authorities.
