The village had an ethnic Armenian-majority population prior to the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war, and also had an Armenian majority in 1989.[2]

History

During the Soviet period, the village was part of the Hadrut District of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast.

The village came under the control of Azerbaijan during the Second Nagorno-Karabakh War.

On 4 October 2022, three sites of graves of Azerbaijani military servicemen from the First Nagorno-Karabakh War were discovered in the village. As most of the buried soldiers had had their legs tied, Azerbaijani human rights lawyer Ziya Guliyev has described it as an example of a war crime.[3][4]

Historical heritage sites in and around the village include the church of Surb Astvatsatsin (Armenian: Սուրբ Աստվածածին, lit.'Holy Mother of God') built in 1692, and a cemetery from between the 17th and 19th centuries.[1]
