In 1992, Natig Gasimov and his comrades were surrounded by the Armenian invaders. After the death of his comrades, Natig Gasimov resisted the enemy for five days.
Gasimov left the Albanian church only after the Armenians threatened to kill 22 Khojaly residents if he did not surrender.
He kept the flag of Azerbaijan to the last in front of the Armenian aggressors.
