Nor Zeytun (Armenian: Նոր Զեյթուն, also Zeytun), is a neighbourhood in Yerevan, the capital of Armenia. It is part of the Kanaker-Zeytun District of the city. Several dozen buildings where extensively damaged during the Nagorno-Karabakh war in 1992, when several OTR-21 Tochka missiles were fired from the Azerbaijani exclave of Nakhchivan. It was the only part of Yerevan that was directly affected by the war.
