Korcabulaq (Azerbaijani: Korjabulag) or Aghbradzor (Armenian: Աղբրաձոր) is a village in the Lachin District of Azerbaijan.

History

The village was located in the Armenian-occupied territories surrounding Nagorno-Karabakh, coming under the control of ethnic Armenian forces during the First Nagorno-Karabakh War in the early 1990s, subsequently becoming part of the breakaway Republic of Artsakh as part of its Kashatagh Province, where it was known as Aghbradzor (Armenian: Աղբրաձոր). The village was returned to Azerbaijan as part of the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh ceasefire agreement.
