“I express my gratitude to the government and people of Azerbaijan for their humanitarian assistance, as well as for the conditions created for the delivery of aid from other countries,” Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said in a post in his X account on Saturday.
“This support, demonstrated in difficult times, is based on the common culture that unites the peoples of Iran and Azerbaijan,” he noted.
The US and the Israeli regime launched a large-scale unprovoked military campaign against Iran following the assassination of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, along with several senior military commanders and civilians on February 28.
The attacks have involved extensive aerial strikes on both military and civilian locations across Iran, causing significant casualties and widespread damage to infrastructure.
In response, the Iranian Armed Forces have carried out retaliatory operations, targeting American and Israeli positions in the occupied territories and at regional bases with waves of missiles and drones.
