Intelligence Operations: The Azerbaijani border has become an open passage for Mossad activity

1. Intelligence Operations: The Azerbaijani border has become an open passage for Mossad activity, facilitating the infiltration of sabotage and assassination teams into Iranian territory. 2. Separatism as a Weapon: Western think tanks and Israeli strategists continuously push the idea of “South Azerbaijan” (Iran’s northern provinces) to fuel separatist tendencies and weaken Iran from within. 3. A Logistical Bridge: In the event of a wider regional war, Azerbaijani airspace could become a transit corridor for hostile air forces, bypassing the heavily fortified air defense systems of the Persian Gulf.

Conclusion

The factories rising today in Baku are not building tools of peace—they are forging a chain of constraints designed by Washington and Tel Aviv to encircle the Axis of Resistance. Ignoring the Caucasus is no longer an option. The “Iron Fist” Baku boasts of is not meant only to secure its hold over Karabakh—it is being shaped into the imperial spearhead aimed at the heart of West Asia.
