Azerbaijan has reported that two drones, allegedly launched from Iranian territory, attacked the exclave of Nakhchivan, injuring at least two individuals. One drone struck the terminal of the local airport, while the other landed close to a school, escalating tensions in the region between Azerbaijan and Iran. The Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense confirmed the attack and described it as an act of aggression that threatens the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Azerbaijan.

In a public statement, the Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense declared that such aggressive actions would not go unanswered. The government indicated its preparation for necessary retaliatory measures to defend its sovereignty, indicating a serious escalation in regional tensions. The situation represents a growing conflict in relations between Azerbaijan and Iran, which have experienced strains due to various geopolitical issues in recent years.

The incident in Nakhchivan underscores the fragile security situation in the region, where territorial disputes and national sovereignty are at the forefront. As Azerbaijan gears up for potential reprisals, the international community will be watching closely to see how this situation develops. Further escalation could lead to broader regional conflicts, impacting not only Azerbaijan and Iran but also neighboring countries and their diplomatic relations.
