Representatives of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in Armenia visited the soldiers of Azerbaijani army Rafig Rahman Hasanov and Anar Khanbala Hajiyev, who are in captivity in Armenia, spokeswoman for ICRC Office in Azerbaijan Gulnaz Guliyeva said.

They met with the captured soldiers last weekend, talked to them and observed their detention conditions.

Hajiyev’s mother Naila Mammadova said ICRC official brought a letter from his son on Thursday. In his letter Hajiyev asked his family not to worry about him and that everything was good.

Hasanov’s father Rahman Hasanov said they called him from ICRC Office in Barda and invited him to the office, but Hasanov had no opportunity to visit the ICRC Office.

Anar Hajiyev, 20, was captured by the Armenian armed forces on May 10.
