In Sumgait, Azerbaijan, security forces, at the request of the Russian authorities, detained 20-year-old Khayal Vasiliev. Since he is a citizen of the Russian Federation, Moscow asks to deport him in order to send him to the army.
As a child, the young man first lived with his father in the Russian Federation. The latter was later convicted, and the boy was transferred to a children's shelter. Then his grandparents took him to Azerbaijan, where they themselves lived. At the same time, over the next ten years, Khayal Vasiliev failed to obtain Azerbaijani citizenship.
On the evening of November 14, security forces raided the Fort restaurant in Voronezh, where a large group was celebrating a birthday. The visitors' documents were checked, and as a result, approximately 50 natives of Azerbaijan were given summonses to the military registration and enlistment office.
