History

Founded in the 1950s, mentioned as Armenabad on 1954 US Army Map Service map; later received the name of the Settlement near Sovkhoz No. 2 of Garsharabtrest. According to the administrative-territorial division of the Azerbaijan SSR in 1961 and 1977, the settlement was part of the Khojaly Village Soviet of the Stepanakert District of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast of the Azerbaijan SSR.[12][13][2][3][4][5] On April 21, 1990, by Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Azerbaijan SSR No. 1783-XI, it was decided to classify the village of Khojaly as a city of regional subordination, to form the Khojaly Town Soviet, abolishing the Khojaly Village Soviet.[14] By Law of the Azerbaijan Republic dated November 26, 1991 No. 279-XII, the Supreme Soviet of the Azerbaijan Republic decided to abolish the Askeran District, form the Khojaly District with the center in the town of Khojaly and annex the territory of the abolished Askeran District to the Khojaly District.[15] Thus, the territory of this localty currently belongs to the Urban administrative district of the town of Khojaly of Khojaly District. By the beginning of the 1990s, as a localty, it was deregistered by the Azerbaijani authorities, and the territory of the localty was assigned to the Khojaly Town Soviet of the Khojaly District. After Azerbaijan restored its independence, sovkhozes there were liquidated.[6] As a result of the Karabakh conflict, the localty in the early 90s of the 20th century came under the control of the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR) and, according to the administrative-territorial division of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, was part of the Askeran District of the NKR and was called "Berkadzor".[16][17] As a result of the fighting in Karabakh in September 2023, the settlement was returned to the control of Azerbaijan. At the moment, in the administrative-territorial division of the Republic of Azerbaijan, the name of this settlement is absent both as part of the Urban administrative district of the town of Khojaly and as part of the entire Khojaly District.[7][8][9][10] On 25 September 2023, amid the exodus of ethnic armenians from the region, a fuel depot in Berkadzor exploded, resulting in the deaths of at least 170 people and over 300 injuries.[18]
