    "Rumors spread by the media on the penetration of subversive groups
    in the territory of Armenia do not correspond to reality," spokesman
    for the Ministry of Defense of Armenia, Artsrun Hovhannisyan wrote
    on his Facebook page.

    "The fact is that some of the units of Armenian Armed Forces conducted
    exercises. However, let us note that once again we face how the media
    spreads disinformation purely on its interests, in the course of
    which it may also promulgate a state secret, thus helping the enemy
    in a combat situation and the information space to gain an advantage
    over us.

    We have repeatedly urged to refrain from spreading such misinformation,
    to clarify information before spreading it, to avoid supporting
    the enemy intentionally or negligently. Information about military
    operations or exercises contain some secrets the disclosure of which
    could seriously hamper the success of the action, even endangering
    the lives of people," the statement said.
