Executive Summary

Severe flash floods and regional security threats require immediate movement restrictions for your Baku personnel. Heavy rains triggered landslides in the Yasamal district and forced emergency evacuations in the Nizami district. These infrastructure failures compound severe geopolitical risks following an attempted armed attack on the local Israeli embassy. Reroute all staff away from flooded underpasses and prepare evacuation triggers ahead of the impending Iranian airspace closure.
