History
On 17 October 2020, the city of Fuzuli was recaptured by Azerbaijan after 28 years of occupation by the armed forces of the Republic of Artsakh.
On 26 November 2020, the Azerbaijani Ministry of Transport, Communications and High Technologies reported that the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) had accepted the appeal of the State Civil Aviation Administration to include six airports, including the airfield in Fuzuli, in its catalog of international airport codes.[1] In January 2021, President Ilham Aliyev issued a decree on the construction of an international airport in Fuzuli. On 14 January, the groundbreaking ceremony for the future airport took place.[2] The runway is completed and used for the first time on 05 September 2021.[3]
