Defense Minister Yoav Galant spoke earlier today with Azerbaijan's Defense Minister Zakir Hasanov and the two discussed the security cooperation between the Caucasian country, which borders Iran, and Israel.
The conversation was held at the initiative of Gallant who emphasized during the conversation that the relations between the two countries are based on friendship and mutual trust and expressed satisfaction "with the current relations between our two countries".
Hasanov expressed confidence that the military cooperation between the countries will expand.
During the phone call, the parties discussed issues of regional security and possibilities for cooperation on the military-technical level between the countries.
Later, there was a telephone conversation between Gallant and the head of the State Border Service of Azerbaijan, Lt. Col. Alchin Guliev, who congratulated Gallant on his assumption of office.
The conversation focused on issues of "mutual interest" cooperation.
In addition, the two exchanged views "on the development of relations between our countries, in the field of security and border protection", according to an official statement from the Azeri Ministry of Defense.
Azerbaijani media on Sunday quoted the words of Egil Rustamzadeh, a retired Azeri Air Force colonel and a senior military commentator in the country, who estimates that Israel is behind the drone attack on military facilities in Iran that took place tonight.
According to Rustamzadeh's claims, the Israeli suicide drone "Haroop" has an attack range of 1,000 kilometers and due to a special antenna installed in it, it is immune to almost every type of electronic warfare that exists, making it very difficult to intercept. "This is the good suicide drone in the world," stated the commentator.
