A 38‑year‑old patient, Mubariz Aliyev, detonated a hand‑grenade inside the National Centre of Oncology in Baku, killing himself and severely wounding radiologist Asif Nasirli, who later died. The incident sparked heated debate on social media about security in hospitals and the influence of the Aliyev family, as the centre is headed by the president’s uncle.
