and the memory of martyrs, who sacrificed their lives for the
territorial integrity of Azerbaijan, were honored with observance
of a minute of silence. The national anthem was performed.
Further, congratulations by the Defense Ministry leadership were

visit to Kalbajar District. That was the second commando military
unit commissioned in the liberated regions, following the one
founded in Hadrut on December 24, 2021.
Earlier, Aliyev noted that Azerbaijan would create many commando
brigades across the country. President Aliyev described the
creation of the commando brigade unit in Hadrut as a significant
event of strategic importance.
Experts described the creation of commando brigades in
Azerbaijan as a new stage in the national army building. It was
also assessed as a clear message for supporters of revanchist ideas
in Armenia.
