JEBRAIL REGION: This region was established in the territory
of the southern part of Mius Khaband Province of Artsakh of the historical
Armenian state. It was annexed to the Soviet Azerbaijan in 1930. It covers
an area of 1050 km2.
During the pre-Soviet period Jebrail Region constituted part of Jebrail District
which emerged in 1875 and covered an extensive area including the Armenian
villages of the southern outlying areas of Hadrut Region of the present Republic
of Nagorno Karabagh.
It is noteworthy that until the beginning of the 20th century basically Armenians and Russians were involved in agriculture while Turks who represented the bulk of the population were nomads.

Currently it is known as Istibulah ("Hot Spring" in Turkish which in Armenian is "Jermaghbiur"). A village is situated 1,5 km from the southeast of Istibulah - Jermaghbiur, on the left bank of the outlet which no longer bears its historical name and is called Kilisa (in Turkish - "Church").
