Azerbaijan opened an embassy in Israel for the first time in 2023. The country is currently holding talks to bring workers to the construction industry.
Israel is allowed rare and almost unlimited access to the long border that Azerbaijan shares with Iran. Despite being a Shiite Muslim country, the Azeri street and the leadership support Israel during the fighting. Fuel supplies and flights were not stopped, and pro-Israeli articles were published in the press. In December, it was reported that Azerbaijan's security services thwarted a terrorist attack against the Israeli embassy.
