FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda The incident occurred on Monday when scores of protesters gathered the capital’s center Baku to voice opposition against President Ilham Aliyev and call for the release of imprisoned dissidents.
After brief scuffles with police, several protesters were pushed onto a bus. But the interior ministry later announced that all those who were arrested have been released.
The protest took place near the Baku Crystal Hall, which will host the upcoming Eurovision song contest next week, one day after rehearsals for the annual competition kicked off in the Azeri capital.
Campaigners have been trying to use the media spotlight for the glitzy pop event to draw attention to alleged civil rights abuses in the Central Asian nation.
