/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Two Lebanese and four Azerbaijanis have gone on
trial on terrorism charges in Baku for planning an attack on the
Israeli embassy in Azerbaijan’s capital.
Karaki Ali Muhammad, Ali Najmeddin, Vidadi Rasulov, Mushvig Amanov,
Afghan Babashov and Javad Mammadov are accused of treason and spying.
The suspects are reported to be "connected to" the Lebanese Shiite
militant group Hezbollah and the Al-Qaeda network. The two Lebanese
were under orders to recruit Azerbaijani citizens and devise a plan to
attack the Israeli and U.S. embassies, as well as the strategic Gabala
missile-detection radar station in the north of the country. They are
also believed to have connections with Iran’s powerful ideological
army the Revolutionary Guards.
Lebanese Karaki Ali Muhammad confessed he was instructed to collect
data about the Israeli embassy in Baku, send it to Sepah and expect
the order to blast the building of the diplomatic mission
