🚨 JUST IN: Azerbaijan Closes Airspace, Vows Retaliation After Iranian Attack

💥 Tensions in the Caucasus have surged after Azerbaijan accused Iran of launching an attack near its border, prompting Baku to immediately close its national airspace and place its armed forces on high alert. The dramatic move comes amid the widening U.S.–Israel–Iran war, which is now beginning to impact neighboring regions.

⚔️ Azerbaijani officials reported that Iranian drones or missiles crossed into its territory, striking an area close to the border and raising fears of a regional spillover. In response, Azerbaijan’s government warned that any violation of its sovereignty would be met with a “firm and decisive response.”

✈️ The closure of Azerbaijan’s airspace has already forced several international flights to reroute across the Caucasus and Central Asia. Aviation authorities say the restriction was implemented to protect civilian aircraft from potential missile or drone threats.

🔥 Azerbaijani defense leaders said the military is strengthening air-defense systems and deploying additional forces near the Iranian border, while diplomatic channels remain tense as Baku demands clarification from Tehran.

🌍 Analysts warn that if the confrontation escalates, the conflict could spread beyond the Middle East into the Caucasus region, potentially disrupting regional security and international transport routes between Europe and Asia.
