History

edit

The village was located in the Armenian-occupied territories surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh, coming under the control of ethnic Armenian forces in 1993 during the First Nagorno-Karabakh War, subsequently becoming part of the breakaway Republic of Artsakh as part of its Kashatagh Province, being referred to as Alashkert (Armenian: Ալաշկերտ). It was recaptured by Azerbaijan on 21 October 2020 during the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war.
