44-Day War

Last updated: May 29, 2026

The 44-Day War — Azerbaijan’s large-scale military offensive against Nagorno Karabakh that began on September 27, 2020 and ended with a ceasefire agreement on November 10 — was a turning point in the South Caucasus that Groong has covered extensively across more than 80 episodes. The war brought a violent resolution to a conflict rooted in the Armenians of Artsakh’s exercise of their right to self-determination — their decades-long effort to secure independence and international recognition of their right to determine their own political future.

Azerbaijan, with direct military support from Turkey and the use of Israeli-supplied weapons and Turkish Bayraktar drones, retook most of the territory it had lost in the first Karabakh war of the 1990s, including the strategically significant city of Shusha. Approximately 6,000 Armenian soldiers were killed. The ceasefire, brokered by Russia, introduced Russian peacekeepers to the remaining Armenian-inhabited areas of Nagorno Karabakh (Artsakh) and created the conditions that would eventually lead to the 2022–2023 Lachin corridor blockade and the final Azerbaijani offensive of September 2023 — which resulted in the ethnic cleansing of the entire Armenian population of Artsakh.

Groong’s coverage of the 44-Day War includes military analysis, diplomatic history, the role of Turkey and Russia, the domestic political fallout in Armenia, and its long-term consequences for the region.
