    11 years pass since occupation of Gubadly District

    Assa-Irada, Azerbaijan
    Sept 1 2004

    Baku, August 31, AssA-Irada

    Tuesday saw the 11th anniversary of the occupation of Gubadly District.

    Members of the Popular Front Party of Azerbaijan, Garabagh Liberation
    Organization, as well as the Garabagh war veterans and representatives
    of a number of public organizations paid tribute to the Cemetery of
    Martyrs on the occasion. Armenian military units that occupied Fuzuli
    and Jabrayil districts on August 23 blockaded Gubadly District on
    the same day. Armenians took control on the district following the
    battles that lasted for 8 days.

    232 local people fell victims and 146 became handicapped during the
    battles. 95 settlements of the district with a total area of 826 square
    kilometers are currently under the Armenian occupation. More than
    30,000 residents of Gubadly have become internally displaced persons.*
