Bears attacked beehives in Hakkari, specifically in the village of Güzelkonak (Haruna) in Şemdinli, affecting local beekeeper İskender Kahraman. On the night of the incident, bears entered his apiary, damaging numerous hives beyond repair. Kahraman discovered the destruction the following morning and expressed his shock at the scene.

Upon inspection, it was found that out of more than 30 hives, only six remained undamaged. Kahraman lamented that his two to three years of hard work had been wiped out overnight, stating that this year had already been unproductive for him. He reported that villagers mentioned three bears had come into the area, and despite the proximity of homes—about 100 meters away—the bears managed to destroy most of his hives.
