Taking into account the apartments and private houses presented today, after the second Karabakh war, martyr families and disabled veterans were given 4,760 apartments and private houses, this year - 260, and in general over the past period - 13,560 housing units.

According to the instructions of the head of state, at least 1,500 apartments and private houses will be transferred to persons from the above category in 2023.

Citizens who were provided with new apartments and private houses expressed gratitude to President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev for the constant care of the state for them.
