BBC revamps Azeri site

The BBC World Service has relaunched its Azeri-language news site, bbcazeri.com, which has been expanded to include features and news summaries.

The site publishes text and audio highlights of BBC news programmes for the Azerbaijan region, as well as weather and links to the BBC's English-language learning tools. All BBC Azeri radio broadcasts can also be downloaded.



"As we are preparing to mark the tenth anniversary of BBC Azeri service, the re-launch of bbcazeri.com in a new format and with expanded content is a next step in making our service a true communications hub for all Azeri-speakers, wherever they are," said Azer Khalilov, head of BBC Azeri.
