On September 28, the second day of large-scale Armenian-Azerbaijani clashes, Hraparak.am <\/span>reported<\/span><\/a> that Russia was transporting a large number of weapons to Armenia. The news was accompanied by an old photo.<\/span><\/p>\n

In recent weeks, official Baku has been spreading unverified news about weapons being transported from Russia. Eurasianet <\/span>notes<\/span><\/a> that in this way Azerbaijan was trying to create diplomatic obstacles to supply arms to Armenia.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hraparak’s evidence does not support the site’s allegations<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Hraparak.am wrote that during the last day “Russia is moving air forces to Armenia” published a photo of a Russian military plane taken in 2015.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In addition to the old photo, the site provided other evidence: Two screenshots from flightradar24.com, which monitors aircraft movements.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first screenshot showed the flight from Rostov-on-Don to Armenia, the second – from Rostov-on-Don to Moscow. The flight screenshots of these flights do not indicate the date of the flight, only the time.<\/span><\/p>\n

The first screenshot (Rostov-on-Don, Armenia) shows a Russian Antonov An-124 (RA-82035) military plane, the last flight of which took place on September 26. Flightradar24.com does not provide information about the endpoint of the flight.<\/span><\/p>\n

The second screenshot (Moscow-Rostov-on-Don) shows the Russian Ilyushin Il-76MD (RA78850) aircraft. In this case, too, information about the endpoint is available on flightradar24.com.<\/span><\/p>\n

Flightradar24.com shows the route of the planes on the map. In this case, too, Media.am failed to find a match with the screenshots spread by Hraparak.am.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Thus, Media.am failed to confirm the information of the screenshots disseminated by Hraparak.am on flightradar24.com.<\/span><\/p>\n

Official Baku was spreading unverified rumors about the weapons supplied to Armenia<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

One of the screenshots spread by Hraparak.am <\/span>was published<\/span><\/a> yesterday by the Azerbaijani website Vzglyad.az, referring to another Azerbaijani source, armenianreport.com. Vzglyad.az wrote that Russia is sending aid to Armenia. The publication of the Azerbaijani website <\/span>was also spread<\/span><\/a> in the Ukrainian press.<\/span><\/p>\n

In recent weeks, official Baku has been actively circulating the thesis that Russia is sending aid to Armenia. Ilham Aliyev even complained to Vladimir Putin personally. Moreover, pro-government websites <\/span>accused<\/span><\/a> Georgia of allowing weapons to be sent to Armenia through its territory. Georgia has <\/span>denied<\/span><\/a> the allegations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Eurasianet <\/span>notes<\/span><\/a> that in this way Azerbaijan may have been trying to create diplomatic barriers against supplying arms to Armenia.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hraparak.am mentions its source of information as not being Azerbaijani, but Russian websites, in particular the platform Avia Pro. The information spread by this platform in August was <\/span>denied<\/span><\/a> by the Ministry of Defense of Armenia.<\/span><\/p>\n

The screenshots and information disseminated by Hraparak.am on September 28 were reprinted by <\/span>Bavnews.am<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Hayeli.am<\/span><\/a>, as well as <\/span>mushroom websites<\/span><\/a>. These sites also used old pictures of airplanes in their publications.<\/span><\/p>\n
