Papravənd (Papravand) is a village in the Agdam District of Azerbaijan.
History[]
The village was located in the Armenian-occupied territories surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh, coming under the control of ethnic Armenian forces during the First Nagorno-Karabakh War in the early 1990s.
The village subsequently became part of the self-proclaimed Republic of Artsakh as part of its Martakert Province, referred to as Nor Karmiravan (Armenian: Նոր Կարմիրավան).
It was returned to Azerbaijan as part of the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh ceasefire agreement.
