BAKU, Azerbaijan, July 15. Despite repeated
warnings, it is with regret that cases continue to be recorded in
which citizens of the Republic of Azerbaijan travel to various
armed conflict zones and high-risk areas, as well as cases in which
they are killed or sustain bodily injuries of varying degrees.
This was announced in a statement
published by the press service of the Azerbaijani Ministry of
Foreign Affairs.
The Ministry emphasized that, in particular, due to the ongoing
military operations in the Black Sea basin, the existing threats to
civilian shipping, and the use of unmanned aerial vehicles,
missiles, and other weapons, the security situation in the region
remains extremely fragile. Given the geographical scope and
intensity of the military operations, the risks to civilian vessels
and their crew members have increased significantly.
''In this regard, we once again urge citizens of the Republic of
Azerbaijan to refrain from travelling to areas where military
operations are ongoing or where the security situation remains
unstable, engaging in employment activities in such areas, or
working on means of transport operating along these routes,
including maritime vessels.
At the same time, we recommend strict adherence to official
travel advisories and, where necessary, contacting the diplomatic
missions and consular offices of the Republic of Azerbaijan,'' the
statement reads.
