Khnapat (Armenian: Խնապատ) or Khanabad (Armenian: Խանաբադ; Azerbaijani: Xanabad) is a village in the Khojaly District of Azerbaijan. Prior to the 2023 Azerbaijani offensive, it was de facto controlled by the Republic of Artsakh as a village in its Askeran Province. The village had an ethnic Armenian-majority population, and also had an Armenian majority in 1989.[2]
The modern village was founded in the early 19th century by settlers from the nearby Armenian mountain villages of Jrver and Yereshen. During the Soviet period, the village was part of the Askeran District of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast.
