Azerbaijan has gained full control over the Nagorno-Karabakh region adjacent to the Iranian border by liberating it from Armenia.
Ali Alizada, the Azeri ambassador posted in Pakistan, says that the flag of Azerbaijan has been hoisted there after the liberation of Agband area adjacent to Iran from the occupation of the Armenian army.
The Azeri ambassador says that after the control of Agband, the border between Iran and Azerbaijan has been completely secured.
Ali Alizada further said that the Azeri army has liberated 20 more villages, including the border area of Agband, from the occupation of Armenia.
Azeri President Ilham Aliyev has also expressed his happiness over the liberation of the border region of Agband from the occupation of the Armenian army.
It should be noted that the war between Armenia and Azerbaijan over the issue of Nagorno-Karabakh has been going on for several days, in which hundreds of people have died.

A temporary ceasefire between the two countries was attempted twice, but soon violations of the ceasefire came to light.
It should be noted that both countries claim ownership of the Nagorno-Karabakh region, but the Nagorno-Karabakh region is officially and internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan, but the Armenian ethnic group occupied it with the help of Armenia in the 1990 war. It was and is now under the control of the Armenian army.
Clashes between the Armenian and Azerbaijani armies often continue in the area, with 15 people from both sides killed in a similar clash in July this year.
