BAKU, AZERBAIJAN - NOV. 6: Marches were held in Azerbaijan’s capital, Baku, on Thursday (Nov. 6) to mark the 5th anniversary of the Karabakh Victory, drawing military school students and veterans as part of national “Victory Day” celebrations.

Before the marches began, participants observed a moment of silence in honor of fallen soldiers, followed by the singing of the Azerbaijani national anthem. A military band performed patriotic marches as citizens joined the procession.

Similar marches were also held in the cities of Sumgait, Nakhchivan, Khankendi, Shusha, and Lachin to commemorate the fifth anniversary of Azerbaijan’s victory in the Karabakh conflict.

The Second Karabakh War, which the Azerbaijanis call the "Homeland War," lasted 44 days and ended on Nov. 10, 2020, when Armenia signed a declaration acknowledging its defeat.

The Azerbaijani army liberated five cities, four towns, and 286 villages from occupation in 44 days. As a result of the declaration, the Armenian army was forced to leave the provinces of Kalbajar, Lachin, and Aghdam.

In September 2023, the Azerbaijani army launched a counterterrorism operation in the Karabakh region, ending the presence of illegal armed forces on the country's territory.

So, Azerbaijan fully restored its territorial integrity and established its sovereignty throughout the country.
