The government of the Artsakh Republic has decided to rename Aghdam
town as Akna.
Local administration representative Sergey Nasibekyan told a
PanARMENIAN.Net reporter that Anka will have a status of a district
and belong in Askeran.
Currently, Akna has about 360 residents. Founded in the 18th
century, the 28-thousand town was completely destroyed during the
Azerbaijani-Karabakh war in early 1990ies.
