Eyewitness videos show moment drone explodes at Nakhchivan airport in Azerbaijan | ABS-CBN News

Описание: Azerbaijan's foreign ministry lodged an official protest with the Iranian embassy on Thursday (March 5) after a pair of Iranian drones flew across the border into Azerbaijan and injured two people at an airport in the Nakhchivan exclave.
Videos shot by eyewitnesses show the moment of drone's explosion near the airport as well as its aftermath.
Reuters was able to confirm the location as Nakhchivan, Azerbaijan from the parking layout, airport building and lamp poles which matched file and satellite imagery of the area. Coordinates: 39.190929440764336, 45.446863969503326.
The date of the videos were confirmed by Azerbaijan's foreign ministry which confirmed the drone blast at Nakhchivan International Airport on March 5.
Azerbaijan's ministry said one drone fell on the terminal building of the Nakhchivan International Airport, which is approximately 10 km (6 miles) across the border from Iran, and another drone landed close to a school building in a nearby village.
"This attack on the territory of Azerbaijan contradicts the norms and principles of international law and contributes to increased tensions in the region," the foreign ministry said in a statement.
"We demand that the Islamic Republic of Iran clarify the matter in the shortest possible time, provide an explanation and take the necessary urgent measures to prevent such incidents from recurring in the future."
The Iranian ambassador to Azerbaijan has been summoned to the foreign ministry to receive a formal note of protest, Baku said.
The statement said Azerbaijan reserved the right to carry out "appropriate response measures" against Tehran.
