The Assyrian rebellion (Turkish: Nasturi Ayaklanması, "Nestorian Uprising")[6] was an uprising by the Assyrians in Hakkari which was administered by Assyrians at the time.[7] It began in July 1924 and ended on 28 September that same year.[8][9] This was the first rebellion in the newly formed Republic of Turkey. After the rebellion ended, 8,000 Assyrians were deported into Mandatory Iraq.[10]
(Another rebellion by the Assyrian community had taken place in 3–4 September 1924.)[11]
