Manashid or Mənəşli (Manashli; Armenian: Մենաշեն, romanized: Menashen) is a village and municipality in the Goranboy District of Azerbaijan.
[1] The village had an Armenian majority prior to the First Nagorno-Karabakh War and Operation Ring.
[2] The village was founded as Manashid (or Monashid) by Swiss-German settlers and was once renowned for its cheese.
During the First Nagorno-Karabakh War, the area around Manashid was at the heart of the fighting during Operation Ring in the spring of 1991.
In September 1991 the Chicago Tribune reported that the residents had lived "without electricity, gas and supplies for months" and that school had been cancelled as "residents fear putting all the children in one place that could be shelled".
