The Hakkari expedition of 1916 was a number of raids during World War I conducted by the Assyrian volunteers against local Hakkari Kurdish tribesmen who the year prior, with the help of the Ottoman Empire, expelled the Assyrians from Hakkari, resulting in their settling in Russian-controlled Urmia and its surroundings.
