Qubadlı (also, Ghubat’ly, Koubately, Kubatlu, Kubately, and Qubadly), known as Vorotan by Armenians, is a town (de jure) internationally recognized as an Azerbaijan's territory. However, it has been de facto controlled by the forces of the Republic of Artsakh since 31 August 1993, when it was captured during the Nagorno-Karabakh War. According to the United Nations Security Council's resolution #874 that 'Calls for the preservation of the ceasefire, cessation of hostilities and withdrawal of Armenian troops from recently occupied Azerbaijani districts of Fizuli (August 23, 1993), Jabrayil (August 26, 1993), Qubadli (September 31, 1993) and other recently occupied areas of the Azerbaijani Republic, and reaffirms UN Resolutions 822 and 853'.
According to the last Soviet census of 1989, the population of Qubadli was 28,110. The administrative division of Qubadli district included 1 city, 93 villages, 31 administrative-territorial circles. There were 115 large and medium enterprises, 11 pre-school institutions, 56 general education schools, 1 technical vocational school, 4 hospitals, and medical institutions, 111 cultural centers. Unfortunately, above mentioned infrastructural objects were either destroyed or brought to inoperative conditions by unrecognized Artsakh government.
