According to a report we have received from the Azerbaijani Defence
Ministry, work is under way to release Aydin Salman oglu Huseynov, a
soldier of the Azerbaijani army, who was taken prisoner three days
ago. Negotiations are under way through the International Committee of
the Red Cross [ICRC].

ICRC representatives have been allowed to visit Aydin Huseynov.
According to the report, representatives of the ICRC office in
Xankandi [Stepanakert] have already met Huseynov. The OSCE has been
informed of this. The circumstances and reasons that caused the
Azerbaijani soldier to cross the [Armenian-Azerbaijani] front line are
being investigated.
