Israel has sent a letter of congratulations to Azerbaijan. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sent the letter to Azeri Prime Minister Ali Assad.
The news was reported on Monday by Azerbaijani media Azvision. The Israeli prime minister sent the letter on the occasion of Baku’s Independence Day. In it, Netanyahu noted that Israel prides itself on being one of the first countries to recognize the independence of Azerbaijan.
The letter further stated that in the last 30 years, strong relations have been established between the two countries on the basis of true friendship between Israelis and Azerbaijanis.
In it, the Israeli prime minister noted the readiness of joint efforts to expand bilateral relations in the area of common interest.
In the letter, Benjamin Netanyahu wished the Azerbaijani people prosperity, stability and prosperity.
Armenia and Azerbaijan have started new hostilities since September 26 due to the opposition from Nagorno-Karabakh.
Both sides agreed to a temporary ceasefire on humanitarian grounds. During the ceasefire, the two countries agreed to exchange POWs and other prisoners and hand over their bodies.
The ceasefire would take effect on October 11. But within minutes of the ceasefire, Armenia and Azerbaijan accused each other of violating the ceasefire.
For the second time since the ceasefire on Saturday night, 13 civilians were killed in an Armenian missile attack in Ganja. Among them are four women and three children. In addition, 50 people were injured in the attack.
The Karabakh region is internationally recognized as a territory of Azerbaijan. However, the region has been controlled by ethnic Armenians since the 1990s. In that decade, more than 30,000 people died in wars with Armenia and Azerbaijan.
