In 1992, Aliyev joined the second battalion established in Goranboy District. His first fight against Armenian army was in Aghdara. On 4 May 1992, he prepared a plan called "Yaltahil" to prevent the attacks of Armenians in the Talysh settlement of the Tapqaraqoyunlu village of the Goranboy District. That operation was successful for Azerbaijani soldiers. One day later, Armenian soldiers suddenly attacked the positions of Azerbaijani army. Aliyev was killed during that fight and his body was found only 43 days after the Talish village was released.[2]
