A new relocation convoy has been dispatched to Khojavand as part of Azerbaijan’s ongoing efforts to resettle formerly displaced residents in liberated territories. 

Those relocating to Khojavand are families who had been temporarily settled in various parts of the republic, mainly in dormitories, sanatoriums, and administrative buildings, Caliber.Az reports per local media. 

At this stage, 64 families — a total of 253 people — have been relocated to Khojavand.

The move is part of the government’s “Great Return” programme, launched following Azerbaijan’s victory in the 44-day war in 2020. The initiative aims to resettle more than one million formerly internally displaced persons (IDPs) by 2030.
