Two civilians were injured after Iranian drones struck targets in Azerbaijan's Nakhchivan region on Thursday. One drone hit the terminal building at Nakhchivan International Airport, located 10 kilometres from the Iranian border, while a second struck a school building in the nearby village of Shakarabad. Azerbaijan's foreign ministry condemned the attacks, summoned the Iranian ambassador, and said the country reserved the right to take appropriate responsive measures. No immediate comment came from Iran.
