00:00Azerbaijan rejected media allegations that Israeli military and intelligence personnel
00:04would have operated on Azerbaijan's territory for missions inside Iran during the war.
00:09Azerbaijan insists that there is no evidence for the report
00:11and that its territory was never used for any malign action against any country, including Iran.
00:17The allegations are particularly sensitive, given Azerbaijan's geography, proximity to Iran
00:22and the importance of maintaining stability along the shared border.
00:25The information mentioned in the article that any Israeli forces deployed on the territory of Azerbaijan
00:32and also Azerbaijan territories were used against Iran during the conflict time are groundless and baseless.
00:40The allegations include reports that Israeli personnel, including intelligence and special forces operatives,
00:45were deployed to locations in southern Azerbaijan close to the Iranian border
00:50and that personnel were involved in intelligence gathering activities
00:53linked to Israel's military campaign against Iran.
00:56The foreign ministry states that Azerbaijan has always conducted a balanced foreign policy.
01:01It says that its partnership with Israel has been always on multi-sector areas and multi-vector areas,
01:07but that it also developed multiple areas of cooperation, both with the Iranian and the Israeli sides.
01:13So far, there is no evidence for that and Azerbaijan's territory could never be used
01:18and will never be used against the third parties, including our neighboring countries and friendly countries.
01:26The allegations remain unverified and neither Azerbaijan nor Israel
01:29has publicly confirmed any of the claims contained in the report.
