Executive Summary

Reroute all southern Baku staff movements away from the Bibi-Heybat corridor today. Recent earthquakes and severe flooding caused a major landslide and collapsed buildings across multiple districts. High-level diplomatic visits will create additional severe traffic bottlenecks and security checkpoints in central neighborhoods. Instruct field teams to avoid the Sabail and Nasimi districts entirely during these foreign delegations. Inspect your older office structures in the Old City for seismic damage before allowing reentry.
