President Urges Probe Into Embassy Incident


TEHRAN -- President Ebrahim Raisi on Friday ordered a thorough investigation into an attack on Azerbaijan’s embassy in Tehran, where a security guard was killed and two people were injured. “We condemn the attack at the entrance of the embassy of our brotherly neighbor, the Republic of Azerbaijan,” Muhammad Jamshidi, a political aide to the Iranian president, tweeted. Foreign Minister Hussein Amir-Abdollahian told his Azerbaijan counterpart Jeyhun Bayramov over phone that the enemies should not be allowed to take advantage of the incident to adversely impact bilateral relations.
