This action contains information about the conditions in which villagers are being kept in the containment area at Mezraa, Hakkari province and about events leading up to the establishment of the containment area. There is reportedly little food and fuel and the villagers are living in very insanitary conditions. It appears that they may be being used as a shield against further PKK attacks. Men from Evrek are reportedly being forced to march in front of soldiers making reconnaissance expeditions.
