Massacre in Bilge, a village in the Mardin province of Turkey

On May 4, 2009, Mehmet Çelebi, a village guard, killed at least forty-four people at an engagement ceremony in the village of Bilge in the Mardin Province of Turkey. The attack was perpetrated using grenades and automatic weapons by at least two masked assailants, who authorities believe are involved in a feud between two families. According to some sources, it was an internal feud of the Kurdish Çelebi clan.
