(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 10. The Azersky-2 satellite will resume its operations in 2026, said Murad Jamalov, Head of the Thematic Processing Division at the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Center of Azercosmos, Trend reports.

Speaking at the 2nd International Water Management Exhibition and Conference - Baku Water Week in the capital, Jamalov highlighted that Azerbaijan is the only country in the Caucasus region to operate its own satellites.

“Two of these satellites, Azerspace-1 and Azerspace-2, focus on telecommunications. Azersky-2 will resume operations next year.
