Employees of the Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnologies of MSE AR visited the graves of the martyrs of the Patriotic War in the 2nd Alley of Martyrs, laid flowers on their graves and prayed for their souls. Later, an event was held at the institute on September 27 - Memorial Day. First, a minute of silence was observed to honor the martyrs who died for the Motherland. The general director of the institute, academician Irada Huseynova, who opened the meeting with an introductory speech, noted that in response to the next military aggression of the Republic of Armenia against our country, which began on September 27, 2020, the Armed Forces of the Republic of Azerbaijan under the leadership of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief started the Patriotic War in order to liberate our occupied lands. During the 44-day war, Azerbaijan defeated the Armenian usurpers by carrying out the "Iron Fist" operation. As a result, Armenia was forced to sign the act of capitulation. The second Karabakh War was written in golden letters in the history of Azerbaijan. The heroic sons of Azerbaijan freed our lands which have been occupied for nearly 30 years and gave a great victory to the people of Azerbaijan.
