المجازر الحميدية
A major role in the Hamidian massacres of 1894–96 has been often ascribed to the "Hamidiye" regiments, particularly during the bloody suppression of Sasun (1894). On July 25, 1897, the Khanasor Expedition was against the Kurdish Mazrik tribe (Muzuri Kurds) who owned a significant portion of this cavalry.
