How powerful is the Azerbaijani intelligence, and who are the "Bats"? 

In Baku, Azerbaijan's capital, during the Victory Parade something intriguing caught President Ilham Aliyev's attention. He fixed his gaze on a spot that hadn't been mentioned by any news outlet before. This spot concealed a group known as "Bats". These "Bats" were in charge of creating chaos among the enemy's ranks, helping free many villages and cities, and mostly working secretly behind enemy lines. This covert team was part of the Azerbaijani Foreign Intelligence Service's special forces unit.
In this section of the Özel Büro, we discussed the State Security Service (Dövlət Təhlükəsizliyi Xidməti), which protects Azerbaijan from both internal and external threats, and the Azerbaijani Foreign Intelligence Service (Xarici Kəşfiyyat Xidməti).
We covered the history of Azerbaijani intelligence, its current status, activities, and much more in the Azerbaijani Intelligence section of the Özel Büro!
