Azerbaijan army enters district handed over by Armenia
Azerbaijan’s army said Friday it had entered
the district of Aghdam, the first of three to be handed back by Armenia as
part of a Russian-brokered peace deal to end fighting in the Nagorno-Karabakh
region.
“Units of the Azerbaijan Army entered the Aghdam region on November 20,”
Azerbaijan’s defence ministry said of the district, which had been controlled
by Armenian separatists for nearly 30 years.
