President Aliyev Lays Foundation for New Garakhanbeyli Village in Fuzuli District
Fuzuli, The Gulf Observer: President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, on Saturday laid the foundation stone for the new Garakhanbeyli village in the Fuzuli district.
Emin Huseynov, Special Representative of the President in the Aghdam, Fuzuli, and Khojavend districts, briefed President Aliyev on the planned construction works. The new village is intended to accommodate residents of the Garakhanbeyli and Merdinli villages, which were destroyed during Armenia’s occupation.
The project will be implemented in two phases. The first phase, scheduled for completion in 2026, will cover nearly 87 hectares and will resettle 404 families (1,861 residents). Construction plans include 404 individual houses—comprising 81 two-room, 202 three-room, 101 four-room, and 20 five-room units—along with social infrastructure such as administrative and service buildings, a school, a kindergarten, a medical facility, and approximately 16 kilometers of internal roads, complemented by electricity, gas, water, and sewage networks.
The second phase, to be executed between 2027 and 2030, will span around 230 hectares and is expected to accommodate 1,075 families (4,093 residents). This phase will involve the construction of 771 individual houses with two, three, four, and five rooms, as well as two- and three-story residential buildings. Additional facilities will include a school and two kindergartens. The village planning also accounts for projected development over the next 20 years.
