11 thousand Hectares of Nakhchivan Territory returned under control of Azerbaijan
Baku / 09.06.18 / Turan: Reports disseminated in the media and social networks on these days about the liberation of the Gunnut village and a number of strategic heights on the border of the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic (NAR) with Armenia have been officially confirmed.
As reported on Saturday by the Nuhjihan state news agency of NAR with reference to the press service of the Separate Combined Army stationed in NAR, at the end of May the village of Gunnut of the Sharur region, occupied in 1992, was liberated. The important strategic heights located around the village were also liberated. In particular, the Azerbaijani army liberated the mountain Hunut, the hill Agbulag, and the mountains Gizilgaya and Mehridag, thus occupying more favorable positions.
The Arpa village in Daralayaz (Areni in the Armenian version) was also taken under control.
In total, a territory of over 11,000 hectares, including 8,000 hectares suitable for agriculture, has been taken under control by the Azerbaijani Armed Forces.
The control of the mountain Gizilgaya at an altitude of 1,683 meters above sea level is of particular importance, since it allows the Azerbaijani army to control the Yerevan-Yeghegnadzor-Goris-Lachin-Khankendi highway.
For the purpose of reliable protection of the territory, a new road with a length of 50 km has been completed, and roads with a total length of more than 50 km have been reconstructed. -06D--
