26 years have passed since the occupation of Azerbaijan's Gubadli region by the Armenian armed forces. According to the SIA, Gubadli region was captured by Armenian invaders on August 31, 1993.
During the defense of the district, 283 volunteer heroes died, seven of them were named National Heroes of Azerbaijan.The outrages of the Armenian armed groups affected virtually every family. People who survived the occupation now live in 47 districts of Azerbaijan.
Gubadli district was established in 1933 as an administrative unit. The region is distinguished by its favorable geographical location, unique nature, lush rocks and slopes, and the Bergushad and Hakari rivers give it a special adornment. There were 13,160 hectares of state forest resources in the region. In Gubadli, more than 10 large-diameter trees of rare species, ranging in age from 150 to 1600, were preserved as a natural monument. Numerous species of animals and birds were protected in the Gubadli State Nature Reserve, which is located at an altitude of 1,600 meters above sea level and has an area of 20,000 hectares and is rich in flora and fauna. The Armenian occupants exploited forests of valuable tree species, underground reserves, rich mineral resources, selected for their unusual flora and fauna.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. As a result of the ensuing war, Armenian armed forces occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and seven surrounding districts.
The 1994 ceasefire agreement was followed by peace negotiations. Armenia has not yet implemented four UN Security Council resolutions on withdrawal of its armed forces from Nagorno-Karabakh and the surrounding districts.
