Description:
The Sayfo or Seyfo (Neo-Aramaic: ܣܝܦܐ [ˈsajfoʔ] lit. 'sword'; see below), also known as the Assyrian genocide, was the mass slaughter and deportation of Syriac Christians (mostly belonging to the Syriac Orthodox Church, Church of the East, or Chaldean Catholic Church) in eastern regions of the Ottoman Empire, and neighbouring regions of Persia, committed by Ottoman troops and some Kurdish tribes during the World War I. The Sayfo mostly occurred between June and October 1915, concurrently with and closely related to the Armenian genocide
