History

Founded in 1928 under the name (Judeo-Tat: «Захметкеш») - "The Toiler".^[2] Asail Binaev became the first editor. Initially, the newspaper was printed in the Hebrew alphabet. In 1929-1930 it switched to the Latin alphabet, and in 1938 - to the Cyrillic alphabet, which is still used today. In the middle of 1938, the newspaper received a new name: (Judeo-Tat: «Гъирмизине Астара») - "Red Star". In the late 1940s, the newspaper was discontinued.^[2] The newspaper renewed work in 1975.^[3] In 1991 the name of the newspaper was changed to "Vatan".

In the 1930s, the Mountain Jewish poet Daniil Atnilov^[4] worked for the newspaper.
