The Armenian side confirms the information about the third Armenian POW, Albert Mikayelyan, who was taken prisoner by Azerbaijan. In a conversation with Armenian News-NEWS.am, lawyer Siranush Sahakyan said that Mikayelyan's family members had recognized him.

She added that they are going to file a complaint also regarding Mikayelyan with the ECHR, asking the latter to use an urgent measure and, as a means of ensuring a lawsuit, to oblige the Azerbaijani government to ensure the inviolability of Albert Mikayelyan's life and his right to health—as it had done in the case of the other two POWs.

The photos of three Armenian POWs—servicemen Areg Sargsyan, Narek Amirjanyan, and Albert Mikayelyan—were disseminated Sunday in Azerbaijani sources, whereas earlier information was reported about only two Armenian POWs.
