Mokhratagh (hy|Մոխրաթաղ) or Kichik Garabey (az|Kiçik Qarabəy) is a village located in the Tartar District of Azerbaijan, in the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh. Until 2023 it was controlled by the breakaway Republic of Artsakh. The village had an ethnic Armenian-majority population[2] until the exodus of the Armenian population of Nagorno-Karabakh following the 2023 Azerbaijani offensive in Nagorno-Karabakh.[3]
During the Soviet period, the village was part of the Mardakert District of the Nagorno-Karabakh Autonomous Oblast.
Historical heritage sites in and around the village include the 12th-century church of Iny Masants (hy|Ինը Մասանց), rebuilt in 1881, a medieval cemetery, and the church of Surb Astvatsatsin (hy|Սուրբ Աստվածածին,) built in 1883.[1]
The population is mainly engaged in agriculture and animal husbandry. As of 2015, the village has a municipal building, a house of culture, a secondary school, three shops, and a medical centre.[1]
The village had 345 inhabitants in 2005,[4] and 341 inhabitants in 2015.[1]
