In February 2016, Kurdish activists accused Turkish troops of slaughtering hundreds of civilians trapped in basements in Cizre. Reports stated that some 150 people were burned to death.

RT travelled to Cizre to get first-hand accounts from witnesses. They showed us the site of the alleged mass killing. RT filmed the destroyed buildings, including blood stains on the debris, and shell casings. A witness told us that among the victims were women, and children as young as ten years old.

Petitioning UN Human Rights Council

WE URGE UNHRC TO INVESTIGATE ALLEGED MASS KILLING OF KURDS IN TURKEY

RT contacted Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, ICRC and other international organisations – and shared the materials with them; but none of them commented substantively, citing a variety of reasons.

With this petition, we want to attract widespread public attention and call for an independent international investigation led by UNHRC into the alleged mass killing of Kurds in south-eastern Turkey.

Please sign now to break the silence and demand #JusticeForKurds.

I am disgusted by the lack of response given the enormous numbers of Kurds residing in Turkish occupied Kurdistan

Yes indeed. It really doesn't make sense. This petition has been around for a long time, publicised highly by RT TV.

I remember there was a petition seeking million signatures to free Ocalan

That was around for YEARS and few people ever signed it

Possibly no one signed it because they didn't believe you could reason with Nazi Turks with a petition.
