The miner was blown up by a mine in Karabakh

In a tragic incident on December 26, an employee of the Agency of the Republic of Azerbaijan for Mine Clearance (ANAMA) met with a mine explosion in the Aghdam district, as disclosed by ANAMA sources. Mahmudov Zaur Eldaroglu, born in 1982, became the unfortunate victim while fulfilling his duties in the village of Sarydzhaly.

The explosion, attributed to an anti personnel mine, prompted an immediate response, with Махмудов Заур Эльдар оглу swiftly transported to the district hospital for medical attention. Fortunately, his condition is reported as satisfactory at present.

From November 10, 2020 to December 26, 2023, 322 people were blown up by a mine in the territories of Azerbaijan liberated from the Armenian occupation. Of these, 66 people died.

ANAMA continues its crucial work in mine clearance efforts, tirelessly striving to eliminate potential threat and ensure the safety of the affected regions. The incident underscores the persistent dangers faced by those engaged in such perilous tasks, highlighting the importance of ongoing efforts to secure and demine areas afflicted by the remnants of Karabakh conflict.
