Pınarbaşı (Kurdish: Aynserê, Syriac: Ayn-Sare) is a village in the İdil District of Şırnak Province in Turkey. The village is populated by Kurds of the Hesinan tribe and had a population of 2,916 in 2021. It is the largest village in the district.

History

Ayn-Sare (today called Pınarbaşı) was historically inhabited by Syriac Orthodox Assyrians. In 1914, the village was inhabited by many Kurdish families and 150 Assyrians in 15 families, according to the Assyro-Chaldean delegation to the Paris Peace Conference. Amidst the Sayfo, a number of Assyrians fled to Azakh after having been warned by a Kurdish woman that their Kurdish neighbours were conspiring to massacre them, whilst those who did not believe her and remained at Ayn-Sare were killed.
