The Russian Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology and Mass Communications (Roskomnadzor) blocked access to the Azerbaijani information and analytical portal Haqqin in Russia.

Roskomnadzor argued the decision to block the site haqqin.az with federal legislation, according to which access to the resource is restricted if it contains information calling for unrest, extremism, as well as for the dissemination of unreliable information replicated under the guise of "reliable messages."

Roskomnadzor made the decision to block the Azerbaijani internet publication based on the request of the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation.

The Azerbaijani website minval.az was also blocked in Russia.

Earlier, Vladislav Kanevsky, Ukraine's Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador to Azerbaijan, told reporters that “I'd want to express my gratitude to President Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan, the Government of the Republic of Azerbaijan, and all Azerbaijanis for providing us with humanitarian assistance at such a vital and trying moment for Ukraine.”

The envoy highlighted that the delivered cargo protects hundreds of civilian lives who are now under fire, noting that this is not Azerbaijan's first humanitarian help to Ukraine.

"Medicines, medical equipment, and food are all provided by Azerbaijan. For many years, Azerbaijan and Ukraine have shown this. We are friends as well as strategic partners," according to Kanevsky.

Azerbaijan’s support for Ukraine sparked dissatisfaction in Russia. After Baku’s pro-Ukraine remarks Russian Embassy twitter account in Baku shared a controversy post possibly provoking separatism by stating “a group of Azerbaijani citizens from Lankaran honoured the memory of the Russian military who died during a special operation in Ukraine and handed over to the Russian Embassy in Azerbaijan a commemorative plaque with their portraits and a wreath. Thank you, Lankaran people.” A large percentage of Lankaran’s population are Talysh, one of the ethnic minorities within Azerbaijan with a small independence movement.
