The Topkhana Forest (Azerbaijani: Topxana meşəsi) is a forest[1] and a state reserve located near Shusha, Azerbaijan.[2][3] Claims of its destruction in 1988 caused tensions over the political future of Nagorno-Karabakh and encouraged civil and inter-ethnic unrest that would eventually erupt into the first Nagorno-Karabakh War.
