Shushekend (Azerbaijani: Şuşakənd Shushekend, Shushikend, also Şuşikənd; Armenian: Շոշ Shosh) is a village internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan (Khojali Rayon), but currently controlled by the de facto independent unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (Askeran Region). There are two Armenian churches in the village, one in the village center, and S. Stepanos of 1655 CE in the cemetery.[1] Above the village on a rise in the north is a third church with adjacent cemetery and khachkars.[2]
