Yukhari Askipara
Yukhari Askipara is a destroyed village in an exclave of Qazakh Rayon, Azerbaijani territory occupied by Armenia and completely surrounded by the Tavush Marz area of Armenia. The exclave has been occupied by Armenian forces since the Nagorno-Karabakh War which also included fighting in Qazakh. Today, the village is destroyed with only the foundations and some lower portions of the houses remaining. A cemetery is intact, as is a children's playground used by the residents of neighboring Voskepar. The Armenian army expelled its Azerbaijani population after it occupied the territory, which Armenia administers as part of its Tavush Province.
