Azerbaijan’s President Aliyev Reviews Reconstruction in Heyvali Village, Aghdara District
President Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan visited Heyvali village in the Aghdara district to inspect ongoing reconstruction and development projects, AZERTAC reported. The President was briefed on landscaping initiatives and planned infrastructure improvements in the village.
Located at the foothills of the Karabakh mountain range, Heyvali was primarily an agricultural community before its occupation, with residents engaged in grain farming, tobacco cultivation, and animal husbandry. The village also featured social facilities such as a school, community club, and post office. Heyvali was liberated during anti-terror operations in 2023.
Out of 126 private houses in the village, 45 have been fully restored and are ready for occupancy, with an additional 50 houses scheduled for reconstruction throughout the year. Currently, 19 families, totaling 74 people, have returned to their homes, and all necessary arrangements have been made for their settlement.
Reconstruction efforts have included the rehabilitation of two transformers, electricity and gas lines, and the installation of new telecommunications networks. A 60-cubic-meter water tank has been installed, and construction of a village-wide water supply system has begun to ensure access to drinking water. Approximately 4.5 kilometers of intra-village roads have undergone major repairs, and a new recreation park has been built for residents.
During his visit, President Aliyev also met with the family of local resident Sarvan Abbasov to review the living conditions in their newly constructed home, highlighting the government’s focus on improving quality of life for returning residents.
