    September 10, 2011 - 17:15 AMT


    PanARMENIAN.Net - Baku is not intimidated by Iran's air drills, the
    head of the foreign affairs department at Azerbaijan's Presidential
    Administration said.

    According to Novruz Mamedov, `Baku's course is aimed at peaceful
    co-habitation with the neighbouring countries.'

    The official further expressed regret over Iran's political, military
    and media propaganda targeting Baku, 1news.az reported.

    The Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force (IRIAF) has begun the second
    phase of major aerial drills in preparation for yet another extensive
    military maneuver next week.

    The second phase of the drills includes the performance of tactical
    flights and dropping of test ammunition on mock targets, with Saeqeh,
    F-4 and F-5 fighter jets from different areas to be dispatched to the
    drill area in the northwest city of Tabriz.

    The third phase of the drill will feature air-to-air and
    air-to-surface missiles as well as various types of fighter sorties.
