      TR PM Davutoglu says "not one civilian death in #Cizre." I'd hope so but residents frantically tweeting otherwise, and nobody is allowed in.

      If catching up: Cizre, Kurdish town of ~120K under 24-hour curfew for seven days now, residents claim many deaths but nobody is allowed in.

      Deputies and even ministers from the gov't trying to get access for days. Denied. Civilians from neighboring towns trying to get in. Denied.

      The government says it is trying to clear #Cizre of terrorists. Little independent news because no journalists allowed. Mobile internet cut.

      Such extended full blockades had happened in Kurdish parts of Turkey in the nineties. Many died. It led to nothing but even worse outcomes.

      Kurdish Deputy & Sakharov prize winner Leyla Zana started hunger-strike calling for ceasefire from all sides. She's also banned from Cizre.

          Collective punishment methods backfire everywhere they've been tried including Turkey. Not just a humanitarian crisis, a disastrous policy.

          And since people always attack me if I talk about violation of Kurdish rights in Turkey: I unequivocally condemn PKK's killing of soldiers.
