President Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan has offered condolences to Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev.
“Operative Information Center-OMM” reports that the message said:
“Dear Kassym-Jomart Kemelevich,
We were deeply shocked by the news that servicemen were killed during military exercises in the Mangystau region.
In these difficult moments, I share your grief and, in connection with this tragedy, extend my deepest condolences to you, the families and relatives of those who died, and the brotherly people of Kazakhstan, on my own behalf and on behalf of the people of Azerbaijan.
May they rest in peace.”
It was previously reported that 14 servicemen died during exercises in the Caspian Sea in Kazakhstan after a sharp deterioration in weather conditions caused them to be swept away.
Military exercises are conducted to improve coordination and operational readiness, while the Caspian Sea can experience rapidly changing weather and hazardous conditions.
