February 14 is celebrated as the Day of Military Air Forces in Azerbaijan. Our military pilots demonstrated examples of courage and heroism in protecting the territorial integrity of our country. In order to prevent the next military provocation of the occupying Armenia, three members of the military helicopter crew – senior lieutenant Abu Bakir Ismayilov, major Tabriz Musazada and mayor Urfan Velizada were heroically died while supporting from air the counterattack operation conducted by our army in April 2016. Our people sanctify the memory of our martyr pilots. IDPs displaced from Jojug Marjanli village of Jabrayil back then as a result of Armenia`s aggression have been able to return to their homeland, live and work there peacefully thanks to the courage of them and their fellow soldiers. Employees of the State Committee for Refugees and IDPs visited the families of martyr pilots and expressed their respect to the memory of glorious heroes of the battles for the liberation of our lands from occupation on the Day of Military Air Forces. Thanking the families of all three pilots on behalf of IDPs, employees presented them symbolic memorable gifts. It was underlined during the meetings that thanks to Mr. President, Supreme Commander-in-Chief Ilham Aliyev`s purposeful, decisive policy, constantly increasing strength and power of our Armed Forces, the day of liberation of Azerbaijan`s occupied territories and return of IDPs to their homeland is not far away. We congratulate the patriotic staff of the Military Air Forces on the occasion of the remarkable holiday!
