The PLP's issued a statement on Armenia's military and information provocations

Society 17:04 13.07.2020
The Public Leaders Platform yesterday issued a statement on the military and information provocation carried out by Armenia to seize our positions on the Azerbaijani-Armenian border in the direction of Tovuz.
 
EDNews.net presents the statement below:
 
As is known, on July 12th, the Armenian armed forces once again resorted to provocation and tried to seize our positions in the direction of Tovuz on the Azerbaijani-Armenian border, using artillery fire. Four of our soldiers and officers were heroically killed during the treacherous attack of the enemy. As a result of counter-measures carried out by the Azerbaijani Army, the enemy was repulsed, and, as it shows in the videos, the enemy's equipment and a large number of manpower were destroyed. Azerbaijani army has taken revenge of our martyrs in excess of the enemy.
 
The attack and armed provocation by Armenia also arouse public anger in Azerbaijan. There were calls on social networks to launch military operations, to gather ordinary citizens and go to the frontline, to take up arms and liberate our lands from occupation. While this demonstrates the high level of patriotism in Azerbaijani society, on the other hand, its form of expression has caused some concern. We all understand very well that now, it is not like in the early 1990s, when there was no proper army, and citizens were forced to defend our lands on their own. Today, Azerbaijan has a strong army, and our army is ready and able to liberate our lands from occupation by the order of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief.
 
Another issue of serious concern to us today is the provocation committed by Armenia in the information sphere. We all witness hundreds of social network accounts deliberately created by the enemy under Azerbaijani names and surnames calling for an information war against our state, pushing the country into chaos and trying to negatively affect the fighting spirit of our people and army. Their allies whether at home or abroad also actively support the information war organised by the enemy's special services against Azerbaijan.
 
As the Platform of Public Leaders, we call on our society, especially the media, the NGO sector, social network participants, our compatriots living abroad, every citizen and all public activists to prevent such provocations and expose them immediately.
 
We call on our wise people and citizens, who are at war with the enemy, to be restrained, patient, not to succumb to provocations and to unite closely around the President, Supreme Commander-in-Chief Ilham Aliyev in such a sensitive and difficult time, to support our army!
 
We are confident that soon our lands will be liberated from the Armenian aggressors by the order of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief and with the support of our people and the strength of our heroic army!
 
May Allah have mercy on all our martyrs who sacrificed their lives for their Motherland!
 
May Allah protect our state, our people, our independence and our army!
