CHP (Republican People’s Party) Leader Kemal Kýlýçdaroðlu and Deputy Chairs Gürsel Tekin and Mehmet Zeki Gündüz will today visit the village of Roboski to express their condolences to the families of 35 people who were killed in the bombardment of Turkish warplanes on December 28.

On Saturday Uludere District Governor Naif Yavuz was in response to Wednesday's airstrikes. Footage of the visit of Yavuz show men booing, lunging forward and pummeling Yavuz as his aides try to hustle him down a road lined with parked cars and bleak, snow-covered slopes. At one point, dazed and disheveled, he runs down an embankment to get away from the crowd.

BDP deputy Hasip Kaplan has warned against any visits from state officials to the village of Uludere after Deputy Prime Minister Beþir Atalay announced he would visit the village to offer his condolences.

"The people do not want to see them [state officials] right now," Kaplan said. "If they come here, we would not be able to control the young people."

"Everyone will be armed," Kaplan said and added any state visit to the village would act as a provacation.
