The Kazym Rebellion (Russian: Казымское восстание) was a revolt by the Khanty people of western Siberia[1] against the collectivisation policies of the Soviet government in 1933. The revolt was named after the small town of Kazym in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug. Some sources describe the events as "Kazym rebellions", listing a series of conflicts starting in 1931, with some half-hearted attempts at reconciliation from Soviet side, but culminating in forceful suppression in 1933 and repression in 1934.[2]
