Bartaz is a village in the Zangilan District of Azerbaijan. [1]
The village was located in the Armenian-occupied territories surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh, coming under the control of ethnic Armenian forces in August 1993 during the First Nagorno-Karabakh War.
The village subsequently became part of the self-proclaimed Republic of Artsakh as part of its Kashatagh Province, referred to as Bardutagh ( Armenian: Բարդութաղ).
It was recaptured by Azerbaijan on 22 October 2020 during the Aras Valley campaign in the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war. [2]
