"The police did not even inform us with a walkie-talkie that an armed person tried to enter the embassy," said Mahir Imanov who was injured during the terrorist attack on the Azerbaijani embassy in Iran, APA reports.

He noted that the terrorist shot him in his left leg: "I wanted to help Vasif (Vasif Tagiyev). That time I felt that I got a bullet wound in my left leg, and my leg doesn't work. A great tragedy would happen if our security companion Vasif had not acted immediately there. It is an embassy, and also there are residential apartments on the upper floor. He was shooting a lot. 3 bullets hit my arm. My left leg didn't work anyway. One of the bullets hit my right leg. No one was providing first aid there. On the way, I heard that they were saying that we are bringing the wounded to the hospital. The hospital did not accept us. We had to go to another hospital. They took me to the operation after 5 hours".
