Iranian drones hit airport in Azerbaijan’s exclave as US-Israel war widens
AI Summary
An Iranian drone attack targeted Azerbaijan's autonomous Nakhchivan exclave on Thursday, injuring two civilians and causing material damage at the airport. The incident occurred at around 12 noon local time (08:00 GMT) in the terminal building of the airport and another drone fell near a school building in the village of Shakarabad. Azerbaijan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned the attack, demanding a clear explanation from Iran and reserving the right to take "appropriate response measures". The incident is part of the ongoing war launched by the United States and Israel against Iran. Nakhchivan was previously part of a historic peace deal signed last year between Armenia and Azerbaijan, which has long been opposed by Iran due to concerns about its potential impact on regional security.
