Imar (Armenian: Իմար) or Karamli (Azerbaijani: Kərəmli) is a village that is, de facto, in the Martakert Province of the self-proclaimed Republic of Artsakh; de jure, it is in the Kalbajar District of Azerbaijan. The village had an Azerbaijani-majority population prior to their expulsion during the Nagorno-Karabakh war.[1]
