The Kizil massacre (Chinese: 克孜爾大屠殺) occurred in June 1933, when Uighur and Kyrgyz Turkic fighters broke their agreement not to attack a column of retreating Hui Chinese soldiers and civilians from Yarkand New City on their way to Kashgar.[1] An estimated 800 Chinese Muslim and Chinese civilians were killed by Turkic Muslim fighters.[2]
