The Turkish army continues burning down the forests in Northern Kurdistan. Thus, hiding places for the guerrilla are meant to be destroyed. The military set fire to forest areas near the village of Cevizdüzü in the Şırnak province. The fire is not extinguished and spreads.

Before, village guards had already cut down thousands of trees for the military. Mount Cudi, where the fire was set, is a guerrilla stronghold.
