Ağdam (also, Agdam and Aghdam) was a city in and the capital of the Agdam Rayon in southwestern part of Azerbaijan. In July 1993 its Azerbajani population fled from Armenian forces, and it is currently a ghost town.[1] Despite the fact that no fighting occurred in the city, it was completely destroyed and vandalised by the Armenians, leaving only a large mosque in poor condition.[2][3]
