An airport in the Azerbaijani exclave Nakhchivan was hit by missiles and drones flying in from the direction of Iran Thursday, the Azerbaijani government said.

Video footage ​shared by a local source ​showed black smoke rising near ⁠the ‌terminal ‌of Nakhchivan International ⁠Airport, which ‌is about 10 kilometers (6 ​miles) from ⁠the border ⁠with Iran.

In a statement, the Foreign Ministry said that the attacks occurred around midday, with one drone striking the terminal building of Nakhchivan International Airport, while another fell near a school building in the village of Shakarabad.

"We strongly condemn these drone attacks launched from the territory of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which resulted in damage to the airport building and injuries to two civilians," the statement said.

It added that the attack "constitutes a violation of the norms and principles of international law and serves to increase tensions in the region."
