Education continues at the full secondary school of Şəkərabad village, Babək district, Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic.

Aztəhsil.az reports that on March 4, one drone fell on the terminal building of Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic Airport, while another drone fell near the school building in Şəkərabad village.

  • Leyla Hasanova, a teacher at the school who witnessed the incident, said that yesterday during class, they heard a loud explosion: “Since the airport is close to us, we saw that the explosion occurred in the airport area. We immediately evacuated the children and went out into the schoolyard. Approximately 7–8 minutes later, a second strike occurred. Despite the stress we experienced, we quickly ensured the evacuation of the children."
  • Another teacher at the school, Aytekin Babayeva, noted that despite what happened yesterday, education continues as usual today: "Although panic arose yesterday, we kept the situation under control. The educational process continues according to the schedule, and students are provided with the necessary psychological support."
  • Münəvvər İsgəndərli, an 8th-grade student at the school, said that she was at school when the incident occurred: "Our teachers began to evacuate the students from the school quickly and carefully. After the signal was given, we were already in the schoolyard. Approximately 5–10 minutes later, an explosion was heard again near our school. It was reported that this was also one of the drones launched by Iran.
  • At that moment, we were all very agitated and scared, and we didn't even know what to do."

It should be noted that the school was not damaged during the drone attack.
