Khnatsakh (Armenian: Խնածախ) or Khanyurdu (Azerbaijani: Xanyurdu) is a village in the Khojaly District of Azerbaijan, in the region of Nagorno-Karabakh. Until 2023 it was controlled by the breakaway Republic of Artsakh. The village had an ethnic Armenian-majority population[2] until the expulsion of the Armenian population of Nagorno-Karabakh by Azerbaijan following the 2023 Azerbaijani offensive in Nagorno-Karabakh.[3] The village is located to the immediate north of the city of Stepanakert.
