Located in the village of Tugh (Khojavend district), Mir Mehdi Khazani Mausoleum is not included on the Republic of Azerbaijan's registry of heritage sites. CHW identified the mausoleum based on information provided by the State Committee on Religious Associations of the Republic of Azerbaijan 1  and the Karabakh Center. 2 

Comparison of Hexagon satellite imagery dated August 1972 3  with satellite imagery captured in June 2020 4  shows that the overall structural condition of the mausoleum has remained unchanged. Images ( a ,  b ,  c ,  d ,  e ,  f ,  g ,  h ) post-dating the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh War confirm this assessment.
