Azerbaijan marks sixth anniversary of Second Karabakh War on Remembrance Day

On September 27, 2026, Azerbaijan observes Remembrance Day, marking the sixth anniversary of the start of the Second Karabakh War. The war began in 2020 when Azerbaijani forces launched counteroffensive operations against Armenian forces, leading to a 44-day conflict that ended with a trilateral ceasefire. Since then, Azerbaijan and Armenia have pursued peace, including border delimitation, digital transit agreements, and rail freight cooperation. Reconstruction continues in liberated areas, and displaced residents are returning. The day honors fallen soldiers with events and a minute of silence across the country.
