"Sources in Iran claim that Israeli fighter jets used Azerbaijani airspace, particularly over the Caspian Sea, to carry out precision-guided bombings of targets in Tehran and other areas. The attacks, reportedly involving deep penetration into Iranian territory, are believed by Iranian officials to have been facilitated through close military and economic coordination between Baku and Jerusalem. While Azerbaijan has strongly denied allowing its airspace to be used for attacks against Iran or any other nation, Iranian officials have publicly pointed to media reports suggesting such cooperation. They have refrained from making direct accusations, instead citing the need for clarification and transparency," reports Ynet, the most visited Israeli news website.

"According to Iranian reports, the airstrikes on Tehran and Karaj originated via routes over the Caspian Sea — a corridor that only Azerbaijan could have permitted, as Iran considers Armenia, Russia and Turkmenistan to be regional allies. Strikes on Tabriz reportedly came via Iraqi airspace, while attacks on Kermanshah and Isfahan were also launched from Iraq following the destruction of Iranian air defense systems in those regions," Ynet adds.
