The “diplomatic” context of this story is also quite interesting - and the reason for quotes is that I hesitate to use this term against #Putin behaviour:

  • First #Russia denied everything and Russian pumped all kinds of nonsense similar to what we’ve seen in the #MH17 case
  • After a few days Putin reluctantly mumbled something about being “sorry for an accident that happened in our air space” but otherwise Russia consistently denied responsibility and ignored any #Azerbeijan request for investigation or compensation
  • Azerbeijan started stiffening its stance towards #Russia in general - at this point you could see Aliyev was simply puzzled why Putin was unable to do the simplest thing from the beginning - say it was an accident, offer support and apologize
  • In response Russia did the dumbest, but the most Russian thing possible - it took… revenge on Azerbeijan for not bowing to Moscow’s ostensible arrogance. They started arresting Azerbeijani minority all across the country, several of them “died in custody”
  • After almost a year Putin finally mumbled a kind of admission, although it was still reluctant and muddied by speculative nonsense.
  • As you can see, in Putin we’re dealing with a pathological liar and narcissist personality who can’t say a word of truth even on the simplest things.

    Ukraine’s state-owned oil and gas major Naftogaz has signed its first deal with Azerbaijan’s SOCAR to import natural gas via the Transbalkan route, it said on Monday.

    “For the first time, a test shipment of gas is being delivered through the Transbalkan route along the Bulgaria–Romania–Ukraine corridor,” Naftogaz said in a statement on its website.

    Russian air defense firing at Azerbaijan Airlines Flight J28243

    PeerTube

    #Azerbeijan media published a statement of the commander of the #Russia air defense battery that operated in #Grozny #Chechnya in December 2024 and a video of the battery firing at an aircraft that later came out to be the civilian Azerbaijan Airlines Flight 8243

    In response to the questions posed to me, I, Captain Dmitry Sergeyevich Paladichuk, can explain the following: I am the commander of BM No. 274, chief of the crew, and was on combat duty covering the city of Grozny from 24 December 2024 to 25 December 2024. At 05:40 on 25 December 2024, an order was received to go to alert level 1. At 05:48, I reported going to alert level 1 via mobile phone. Mobile phone reception was unstable at my position, and I had no other reliable means of communication. Fibre optic cables had been laid but were not connected to the terminal, and there was no digital telephone with a dial pad. At 08:11, the target detection station detected a potential target, which I took under precise guidance of the Multifunctional Radar System, which I reported to the 51st Division’s command post. At 08:13, I reported the updated coordinates: α = 338 degrees, D = 7000 m, H = 490 m, V = 118 m/s, heading 230 degrees. I received an order by telephone to destroy the target. The target was not visible in the optics due to very thick fog, which was reported to the VKP. At 08:13:30, I gave the order to fire to the operator. At 08:13:33, the missile veered off course. At 08:13:47, the BM-72V6 command post reported that the target had been missed. At 08:13:48, I gave the order to fire again. According to the MRLS, the first missile was launched when the target had the following coordinates: α = 319 degrees, D = 7300 m, H = 697 m, V = 80 m/s. The second missile was launched when the target had the following characteristics: α = 311 degrees, D = 8000 m, H = 1300 m, V = 120 m/s.
