Baku: Azerbaijan summoned Russia's ambassador in Baku to protest the fall of an Iskander missile onto its embassy compound in Kyiv during overnight strikes on the Ukrainian capital, the country's Foreign Ministry stated. The incident led to the destruction of a portion of the perimeter wall and damaged buildings, service vehicles, and the consular section, although no casualties were reported.

According to Anadolu Agency, during the meeting, Baku delivered a verbal note conveying a strong protest to the Russian ambassador. Azerbaijan reminded Russia that the coordinates of all Azerbaijani diplomatic facilities in Ukraine had been formally provided to Moscow in April 2022.

The ministry highlighted several previous incidents involving strikes near or on Azerbaijani diplomatic sites. These included a March 2022 attack on the Honorary Consulate in Kharkiv, a January 2024 'Kinzhal' strike that left unexploded ordnance near the embassy building, and an August 2025 blast close to the mission's compound.

Additionally, drone attacks on SOCAR's oil depot in the Odesa region on August 8 and 18, which resulted in injuries to employees and significant damage, were also brought up during the discussion.

The Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry emphasized that the recurring incidents raise questions about the deliberate nature of the missile attacks. Baku has requested that Russia conduct a full investigation into the matter and provide a detailed explanation.
