Kalbajar (Azerbaijani: Kəlbəcər ; Armenian: Քարվաճառ, romanized: Karvachar) is a city and the capital of the Kalbajar District of Azerbaijan. Located on the Tartar river valley, it is 458 kilometres (285 mi) away from the capital Baku.
The city had a population of 7,246 before its occupation by Armenian forces on 2 April 1993, during the First Nagorno-Karabakh War, which resulted in all of the city's population being expelled,[2] after which the city was repopulated by ethnic Armenians.[3]
The city, alongside the surrounding district, was returned to Azerbaijan on 25 November 2020 per the ceasefire agreement that ended the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war.
