On the evening of 4th September, the invading Turkish army conducted heavy air attacks on Çarçel hill in the area of Çarçella in Hakkari’s in Gever (Yüksekova) district. Following the action, the invading forces carried out set downs by the Sikorsky type helicopters.

In these actions, 8 enemy soldiers were killed and a large number of soldiers were wounded. After the actions, the occupying Turkish army carried away dead and wounded soldiers from the area with a large number of Sikorsky helicopters.
The fascist AKP - MHP government and its pool media are in attempts to distort the blows inflicted in Çarçella with special warfare methods. With every statement they make in the mood of a victory, they mention exaggerated guerrilla losses. The invading Turkish army’s blows are hidden from the public in these special warfare methods.
On September 4, at 13:00, our forces carried out an action against the enemy soldiers positioned on Xeregol hill in Hakkari's Çelê (Çukurca) district. The number of dead and wounded soldiers could not be determined in the action where enemy positions were struck effectively. Invading forces then bombed Martyr Rüstem area indiscriminately with howitzers and mortars. Following the bombardment, a fire broke out in the area and still continues.
