BAKU, Azerbaijan, Oct.4
Trend:
The date of 4 October will forever remain in our history. Because the city of Jabrail was liberated from the invaders on 4 October, and this victory had tremendous importance. Because a city, a district center were liberated for the first time in the first week of the war, President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev said addressing the meeting with members of the general public of Jabrayil, Trend reports.
“It had a great symbolic meaning. This gave additional strength and confidence to our Army. After this Victory, our glorious Army fulfilled its historic mission in other places as well. The people of Jabrayil are well aware that on the first day of the war, two villages of Jabrayil were liberated from the occupiers – Boyuk Marjanli and Nuzgar villages. The liberation of four villages of the Fuzuli district was our first success. Despite heavy fighting, it was not possible to liberate any new settlements during the following week. In other words, this was dictated by the objective course of the war, and Sugovushan settlement and Talish village, as well as several villages of Jabrayil district, were liberated from the occupiers on 3 October. This gave our army additional strength,” President Aliyev said.
“On 4 October, I delighted the people of Jabrayil and indeed all of Azerbaijan by sharing this good news – the city of Jabrayil has been liberated! If we go one year back, we will see the greatness of our victory again. When the war broke out, of course, our daily efforts were focused on reinforcing the victory and liberating all the occupied territories. In other words, there was no time to analyze the successes achieved, and this wasn’t necessary either. But while analyzing it more accurately and clearly today, a year after the war and after the liberation of Jabrayil, we can see that this victory was of immense importance,” the head of state said.
