According to the report, at least 50 districts of 11 provinces were hit by the curfews, which are estimated to have had an impact on the lives of at least 1,809,000 people.
Diyarbakır came first among the provinces affected with 190 curfews, followed by Mardin (53), Hakkari (23), Bitlis (18), Şırnak (13), Muş (7), Bingöl (7), Tunceli (6) and Siirt (2).
Curfews were declared as part of military operations into the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), which caused hundreds of civilians’ death.
