A veteran told how a rocket explosion threw him against the wall of the Shusha fortress

Like many heroic sons of the Motherland, he walked a glorious combat path and fought courageously during the 44-day Patriotic War. During the operation carried out on November 8, he was seriously wounded and learned about the victory while being treated in a hospital.

As reported by BAKU.WS with reference to Baku TV, it concerns Kamran Ibrahimov from the city of Goytapa in the Jalilabad district, who served in the Special Forces.

Speaking about the combat path that led him to Shusha, K. Ibrahimov said that his first mission began in the town of Hadrut in the Khojavend district.

"I took with me the flag that hung behind my groom's chair. I kept it in my backpack so that one day I could raise it in one of the districts of our Karabakh. Praise be to Allah, I managed to raise that banner on one of the heights in the town of Hadrut. We captured that height, which allowed the equipment of the Azerbaijani army to enter Hadrut," he shared.

The veteran also noted that he was wounded during the operation in the city of Shusha.

"When we were raising the Azerbaijani flag on the parliament building, the enemy deployed all means of aerial attack. All around, only dust and earth could be seen. One of the rockets exploded right next to me. The shockwave threw me against the wall of the Shusha fortress.

On November 8, I was wounded in Shusha, and the next day, November 9, I opened my eyes already in the Fizuli hospital. After the President congratulated the Azerbaijani people, the doctor came into the ward, woke all of us up, and announced that the Azerbaijani army had won the victory. Believe me, the feelings I experienced at that moment are very difficult to put into words. That joy cannot be compared to anything," K. Ibrahimov added.
