persia did non pack come out the drone on attacks on Azerbaijan and may itself be the target of a broader provocation campaign by the “Zionist regime,” Tehran’s ambassador to Russia, Kazem Jalali, has said.
Azerbaijani officials claimed on Thursday that drones flying from the direction of Iran struck the terminal building at Nakhchivan International Airport. Another UAV reportedly crashed near a school in a nearby village, leaving two civilians injured. Tehran has denied any involvement.
Speaking to RT, Jalali cited the General Staff of Iran’s Armed Forces statement that in some cases “other sides are directing the drones.”
“We did not strike Nakhchivan, and there was no reason for an attack,” he said. “It is possible that the Zionist regime and others have taken these actions to involve us with our neighboring countries.”
Baku has called the strike a “terrorist act,” blaming Tehran and demanding apologies. Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev said that those responsible must be held accountable and vowed that his country would “retaliate.”
Iranian officials have repeatedly said the strikes are directed only at countries hosting military bases belonging to Tehran’s adversaries and that they do not seek confrontation with neighboring states.
