"It was in 2015 when they announced the annual deadline for the central high school diploma," says Rabbi Samir Isajew, director of the Baku Jewish school.

“And when we found out about the appointment, we had a problem.

On Shabbat!

What should Jewish students do there?

We are not allowed to work on Shabbat. "

So they called the Ministry of Education and brought the matter up.
