Azerbaijan summons Iranian envoy

Azerbaijan accused Iran on Thursday of firing two drones at its territory, injuring two people, and said it had summoned the Iranian ambassador in order to issue a strong protest.

The Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry said one drone fell on an airport in Nakhchivan, near the border with Iran, and another landed near a school, the ARN News Center reported.

In a statement, it condemned the attacks, demanded an explanation from Iran and said Azerbaijan reserved the right to take "appropriate response measures".

There was no immediate comment from Iran.
