BAKU, Azerbaijan, March 5. We condemn Iran's
strike on Azerbaijan, which follows its reckless attacks on
countries in the Middle East and Europe, Ukraine’s Minister of
Foreign Affairs, Andrii Sybiha, said in a post on his X page,
Trend
reports.
"We condemn Iran's strike on Azerbaijan, which follows its
reckless attacks on countries in the Middle East and Europe.
There was never any reason for Iranian terrorists to harm
Azerbaijan and Ukraine by giving their drones to Russia or other
countries where they have caused chaos, murder, and
destabilization.
Iran's attack on Azerbaijan once again demonstrates that the
regime in Tehran is a global threat, not a regional one. And it is
not only about Iran but also its terrorist allies, including
Russia.
All international efforts must be consolidated to neutralize the
threats posed by the Iranian regime, provide a chance for normal
life for the Iranian people, and restore security and stability in
the Middle East and beyond," the post said.
On March 5, a drone attack took place at the Nakhchivan
International Airport. The drone flying from Iranian territory
crashed into the airport building and exploded near the secondary
school in Shakarabad village, Babek district.
Four civilians were injured as a result of the incident. The
Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry issued a statement regarding the
incident, demanding Iran clarify the issue in a short time, provide
an explanation, and take the necessary urgent measures to prevent
such cases from recurring in the future.
The Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Iran to
Azerbaijan, Mojtaba Dermichilou, was summoned to the Foreign
Ministry, where a strong protest was conveyed to the Iranian
side.
