Gülablı (Armenian: Գյուլափլը, also spelled Gyulably and Gyulaply) or Vazgenashen (Armenian: Վազգենաշեն) is a village in the province of Martuni in the de facto independent Nagorno-Karabakh Republic and a de jure part of the Agdam Rayon of the Republic of Azerbaijan. Its population as of 2005 stood at 226.[1]
Drone shootdown
On September 12, 2011, an UAV was reportedly shot down by the air defense arm of the Nagorno-Karabakh Defense Army (NKDA) over the airspace of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, near Vazgenashen, previously known as Gulably.[2] Preliminary investigations carried out by the NKDA have determined the model to be a Hermes 450 type.[3]
The Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense initially denied losing any drones. But several days later the state news agency APA, citing a Turkish tabloid newspaper, came out with an elaborate explanation that the UAV was supposedly operated by Israel and making reconnaissance flights from Armenia to spy on Iran.[4]
