Norabak (Armenian: Նորաբակ) is a village in the Vardenis Municipality of the Gegharkunik Province of Armenia.[2] The village was populated by Azerbaijanis before the exodus of Azerbaijanis from Armenia after the outbreak of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. In 1988-1989 Armenian refugees from Azerbaijan settled in the village.[3]
Etymology
The village was also previously known as Azizli. The village was renamed Norabak following Armenia's independence.
