Israeli drone strikes on Iran during the 12-day war were carried out from Azerbaijani territory and through its airspace, a member of parliament said Friday, alleging direct involvement by Baku in the operation and in the death of former President Ebrahim Raisi, who died in a helicopter crash last year.
Kamran Ghazanfari, a Tehran MP, claimed a Mossad base in Baku was involved in the war and accused Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev of playing a role in Raisi’s death.
“Aliyev was involved in the assassination of Martyr Raisi, and yet our president warmly embraces him through a suspicious intermediary,” Ghazanfari said, according to Iranian media.
He also alleged that Azerbaijan is working to undermine the Islamic Republic, citing what he said were Pentagon documents and statements by Israeli officials pointing to Baku’s coordination with Israel in the attack on Raisi.
Ghazanfari criticized President Masoud Pezeshkian for seeking closer ties with Aliyev despite what he called Baku’s hostile intentions.
