Azerbaijan Thwarts Terror Attack Against Israeli Habad Emissaries
(Ha'aretz) Eli Shvidler - Three men were detained last week after planning to attack two Israeli Habad emissaries employed by a Jewish school in Baku, the Azerbaijan Ministry of National Security has revealed. The men received smuggled arms and equipment from Iranian agents. Wafa Guluzade, a political commentator considered close to Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, warned Iran that "planning the murder of prominent foreign citizens in Azerbaijan by a band of terrorists, one of whom resides in Iran, amounts to 'hostile activity' against our country....Iran and its primitive ayatollahs sense their end is near and are trying to terrorize their neighbors."
