Xanlıq (Azerbaijani pronunciation: [xɑnlɯx]) is a village in the Qubadli District of Azerbaijan. It is situated along the Hakari river.
History
Xanlıq was part of the Jebrail Uyezd of Elisabethpol Governorate during the Russian Empire. According to 1886 census data, there were 148 homes and 648 Azerbaijanis (classified as "Tatars" in the census) of the Sunni branch of Islam in Xanlıq.[2] According to the 1912 "Caucasian Calendar", the village of Xanlıq was home to 797 people, the majority of whom were Azerbaijanis (classified as "Tatars" in the census).[3]
Xanlıq was part of the village council of the same name in the Zangilan District of the Azerbaijan SSR during the early Soviet period in 1933. There were 312 households in the village, with a total population of 1,385 people. The population of the village council, which also included the villages of Alaqurşaq, Mahruzlu, and Muğanlı, was 97.7 percent Azerbaijani.[4]
The village had 2,201 residents in 1986. Its residents' main occupations were tobacco farming, cattle breeding, silkworm breeding, and crop cultivation. There was a secondary school, a vocational school, a cultural centre, a library, and a hospital in the village.[5]
During the First Nagorno-Karabakh War in 1993, Armenian forces occupied the village, forcing the Azerbaijani population to flee. It was later incorporated into the self-proclaimed Republic of Artsakh as part of its Kashatagh Province, where it was known as Ishkanadzor (Armenian: Իշխանաձոր). The village was eventually settled by Syrian Armenians fleeing the Syrian Civil War. According to Artur Aghabekyan, Deputy Prime Minister of Artsakh, the village of Xanlıq was purposefully chosen for settlement because it is at the crossroads of roads leading north to Lachin, east to Hadrut, and west to Armenia.[6] In 2006 the village completed the construction of Ishkanadzor Clinic with financial backing from the Tufenkian Foundation,[7] while in 2014, it was reported that 34 additional homes had been built in the village using funds from the Artsakh Lottery.[8] The village has served as a hub for 16 other smaller settlements in the surrounding areas.[9] Azerbaijan described the settlement of Syrian Armenians on its internationally recognised territory as a violation of international law.[10]
Azerbaijan recaptured the village on 26 October 2020, during the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh War.[11]
