Among the village's population, 48 people were beys, 7 were representatives of the clergy, while the rest were landowner peasants.[3]

According to the results of the Azerbaijani Agricultural Census of 1921, Tiri, Ordakli rural district, Gubadli district, Azerbaijan SSR, was inhabited by 51 people, the predominant nationality was Azerbaijani Turks (Azerbaijanis).[4]

During the First Karabakh War in 1993, the village was occupied by Armenian armed forces.[5] After the occupation, the village was destroyed.[2] Residential buildings, a village school, village library and social club were destroyed.[6]
