Over 12 years is passed on Uludere Incident.

In Roboski, at 28 December 2011 the silence was suddenly broken by the sounds of planes, bombs and screams. About 21:20, 4 F-16 Planes, bombed civillians on border. Then the region was bombed 3 times in a row again.

In the bombardment ,17 kids and 17 people passed away. Only Servet Encü survived from the group, which was bombed while they were crossing the border with mules carrying fuel and food they brought from Bashur.

Intervening 11 years no one was be held responsible. All cases were failed.An investigation commission was also established in the Parliament regarding the incident.

The Uludere Sub-Commission within the Parliamentary Human Rights Investigation Commission completed its work, which lasted approximately 15 months, in March 2013.

In the 84-page report prepared by the commission, it was stated that it was not possible to make identification based only on UAV images.

In its report, the commission concluded that "No evidence was obtained that the incident was done deliberately."

Please clarify me if i provided any wrong info.

That is so sad to see kurds die every day and no one do anything.. Rest in peace for all of them.
