The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Syria has condemned Iran’s strikes on Azerbaijan.

Axar.az reports this was announced by the Syrian MFA on social media.

“The Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs strongly condemns Iran’s attempt to strike Turkiye and Azerbaijan using ballistic missiles and drones. These actions constitute a clear violation of state sovereignty and pose a threat to regional and international security and stability,” the statement said.

It was emphasized that Syria does not accept violence or escalation targeting civilians and infrastructure, expresses full solidarity with Turkiye and Azerbaijan, and calls on the international community to fulfill its obligations to ensure peace and security in the region.

It should be recalled that on March 5, Iran carried out drone attacks on facilities in the Nakhchivan territory. One drone struck the terminal building of Nakhchivan International Airport, while another landed near a school building in Shakarabad village. The airport attack injured four civilians. The Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran to Azerbaijan, Mojtaba Demirchilu, was summoned to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Azerbaijan reserves the right to deliver a retaliatory strike.
