During the visit, he met with the martyr’s sons, Alirza and Huseyn.
Major Abbas Gasimov was martyred on September 27, 2020, the first day of the Patriotic War, during combat operations for the liberation of the Gubadli and Fuzuli districts. In recognition of his bravery and dedication, he was posthumously awarded the medals "For the Liberation of Gubadli," "For the Motherland," and the Order "For Service to the Motherland" (3rd degree), by the Orders of President Ilham Aliyev.
The meeting served as a tribute to Major Gasimov’s life of service, his heroism, and his unwavering love for the homeland. Officials emphasized that, like all martyrs, his memory will forever be cherished in the hearts of the Azerbaijani people.
In line with the directives of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, comprehensive social support measures continue to be implemented for the families of martyrs and war veterans. As part of these efforts, the family of Major Gasimov has been assigned social benefits and provided with housing by the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection of the Population.
The visit reaffirmed the state’s ongoing commitment to ensuring that the families of fallen heroes remain under its care and protection.
May God bless the souls of all our martyrs.
