#remember #rememberthemassacre #massacreofsivas #sivas1993 #the_classic_scenes The Sivas massacre refers to the events of July 2, 1993, which resulted in the killing of 35 people, mostly Alevi intellectuals, and two hotel employees. The victims, who had gathered for a cultural festival in Sivas, Turkey, were killed when a islamistic mob set fire to the hotel where the Alevi group had assembled. The hotel was set alight, and the fire claimed 35 lives, including those of musicians, poets, tourists and hotel staff, while assembled police did nothing to intervene. (hier: Sivas, Turkey)
