The largest area of demining operations in Azerbaijan has been carried out in the Jabrayil district, covering 9,110.4 hectares. According to the Cabinet of Ministers report for 2025, this figure represents the highest volume of clearance activity among the liberated territories.

Operative Information Center-OMM reports that the official data was included in the Cabinet of Ministers annual report for 2025. According to the document, the distribution of demining operations conducted across other regions in 2025 is as follows: Lachin (8,718.6 hectares), Fuzuli (8,526.2 hectares), Khojavand (8,203.6 hectares), Aghdara (7,893.3 hectares), Aghdam (7,672.1 hectares), Khojaly (4,995.7 hectares), Zangilan (4,063.4 hectares), Qubadli (3,514.8 hectares), Kalbajar (3,008.2 hectares), Shusha (856.3 hectares), Khankendi city (360.8 hectares), Tartar (12.8 hectares), and other districts (2,269.5 hectares).

The demining process is a critical component of Azerbaijan's large-scale reconstruction and rehabilitation efforts in the Garabagh and East Zangezur economic regions. These operations are essential for ensuring the safe return of internally displaced persons and the implementation of infrastructure projects. Azerbaijan remains one of the most landmine-contaminated countries in the world, and the government continues to prioritize humanitarian demining as a fundamental step toward regional stability and economic development.
