Ələsgərli (also, Ələskərli, Alasgarli, Aleskerli and Aleskerly) is a ghost village on the river Zəyəmçay in the Fuzuli District of Azerbaijan. It is set on undulating land, some 7 km due east of Fuzuli town, backed by more substantial mountain foothills. Video footage released after its 2020 recapture by Azerbaijani forces show an intact metalled road running through an otherwise devastated settlement of widely spaced farmhouses that have long ago fallen into crumbling ruins.[1]
