Representatives from Iran, Turkey, Kuwait, Pakistan, and the Palestinian Authority walked out of an international conference in Azerbaijan during a speech by Israeli President Isaac Herzog. The incident mirrors a similar walkout during Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's address at the United Nations.

Despite the boycott by several Arab and Muslim-majority nations, the Emir of Qatar, with whom Israel does not have diplomatic relations, remained in the hall and listened to President Herzog's address.

The conference was held in Azerbaijan, a nation with which Israel maintains diplomatic ties.
