Uğur (Kurdish: Tilebêr; Syriac: Tel-Bal) is a village in the Cizre District of Şırnak Province in Turkey. The village is populated by Kurds of the Aluwa tribe and had a population of 207 in 2021.
History
Tel-Bal (today called Uğur) was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Assyrians. In 1914, the village was populated by 300 Assyrians, according to the list presented to the Paris Peace Conference by the Assyro-Chaldean delegation. There were 50 Syriac Orthodox families who belonged to the diocese of Jezire. Amidst the Sayfo, only two people survived the onslaught as they had been hidden by their Kurdish servants.
