He was wounded in the First Karabakh War, and his only child was heroically killed in the Second Karabakh War. We are talking about Ganja resident Naila Alakbarova. Ms. Naila lives in a one-room apartment in the dormitory of the "DETAL" Aluminum Plant on Tagi Arani Street in Ganja. At a young age, he began working as a factory worker. However, the Khojaly genocide in 1992 and the battles for the freedom of our lands shook him and he went to the military commissariat several times and said he wanted to go to war. Finally, in May 1992, he volunteered for military service. He took part in the fierce battles for Tartar, Torpaqtepe, Aghdara and Hasangaya.
Naila Alakbarova says that on June 13, 1992, she was wounded by an enemy bullet during the Torpaqtepe operation: "I came to hospital No. 230, received treatment and returned to the war zone. They took three shrapnel from my body, three are left. " Ms. Naila took part in the fighting until 1993. After returning from the war, he resumed his work. But a greater test lay ahead. His only black-eyed son, Rashad Alakbarov, volunteered for the Patriotic War, which began on September 27, two days later. He showed heroism in the battles for Fuzuli, Khojavend, Jabrayil, Zangilan and Gubadli, and destroyed a large number of enemy forces and equipment. Rashad, 23, was martyred in the fierce fighting in the Lachin corridor. The last conversation with his mother took place on November 7 in the morning. Rashad always hid from his mother that he was on the front line, in battle:
"He called every day, 7 of them called in the morning, he said, if the call doesn't come, don't worry, I'll call myself. Then the call did not come. " Rashad has been interested in the military since childhood. He served in the army. After completing his military service, he worked as a videographer in one of the restaurants. Relatives say he was a patriotic and courageous boy since childhood. According to his relative Mahir Babayev, the neighbor's advice "you are the only son of the house, don't go" did not dissuade Rashad from taking up arms for the Motherland: "I told Mrs. Naila that if Rashad opened his eyes and saw you in such a military uniform, no matter how much you say, he will leave. Because he was brought up. " It should be noted that by the order of President Ilham Aliyev, soldier Rashad Alakbarov was posthumously awarded the medal "For the Motherland".
