It’s been 6 yrs since IS terrorists attacked the Yazidi community in Iraq on 3 Aug2014. We will commemorate this solemn anniversary with a campaign in social media with support from our friends around the world, will share and highlight our plight.

“Some took three or four girls. Some took a lot, their leader took seven for himself. The pretty ones were singled out. The women were separated from their children, they took everyone.” A Yazidi girl who survived of ISIS captivity.

“I experienced many difficult things at that moment, one of those experiences was seeing my father getting shot to death - 3 bullets.” Ekhlas, a Yazidi girl, was kidnapped at the age of 14 by ISIS terrorists when they targeted her village in Sinjar in 2014

ISIS terrorist members joke around with each other as screams of a Yazidi girl/woman being raped in the background is heard. The ISIS rapist who was filmed laughing at the sound of a Yazidi kidnapped girl from Sinjar when she was being raped.

He said, “It’s ok our religion to take a 9-year-old”
I said, “Don’t tell me that, I don’t want to here it”

We were around 35 girls & 3 women, I’m 21 but I was the oldest
One guard was forcing a 9-yr-old girl to go with him to the bathroom.

Six yrs on from #YazidiGenocide, 60% of the Yazidi community remains displaced & living in camps. There are 2,800+ Yazidis in ISIS captivity or missing even those who managed to escape from the captivity are generally living in bad conditions in IDP camps.

"It was so humiliating. We were imprisoned; they wouldn’t feed us; they would beat us all even the small children; they would buy and sell us and do whatever they want to us. It is like we are not human to them." Nour a Yazidi woman who survived of ISIS captivity.

ISIS members call us and offer to sell us (Yazidi girls). They call the girl's family, and we buy her. We, the Yazidis, in the 21st century buy our daughters and our women.
2017

Despite the migration of more than 100 thousands #Yazidis abroad since ISIS terrorist invaded #Sinjar region, Iraq in 2014, more than two thousand and eight hundred Yazidis abductees are still missing, according to figures of released by the Yazidi Rescue Office at the #KRG

Nihad a Yazidi girl who was abducted when she was 15 years old by ISIS terrorists from Sinjar, Iraq in 2014. She was then taken to Syria and then to the ISIS stronghold of Mosul, where she was tortured & raped repeatedly for weeks together by the ISIS terrorists.
#YazidiGenocide

I was sold to an emir in Mosul. I didn't think I would survive much longer when I decided to try to escape. I was fortunate when I managed to make it out of home. A peasant from Mosul found me in fields & he hid me with his family 4 a year: Bushra was kidnapped by IS at age of 11

A Yazidi woman was held in a cellar for 3 days, without food or anything
ISIS brought her a plate of rice & meat. She ate the food because she was very hungry. When she finished, they said to her: We cooked your one-year-old son that we took from you, & this is what you just ate.

We will slowly, step by step, convince those children (whom are survivors of ISIS captivity)… to put the Yazidi community’s humanity back into their heart, because there is no more peaceful religion than Yazidi. Said Baba Sheikh the Yazidi spiritual leader.

Our Arab neighbors joined ISIS to seize our lands, kill our loved ones & drive us out. Hundreds of 1000s of Yazidis now live in IDP camps
We have lost faith in both the Iraqi government & KRG to protect us from the next genocide, we need our areas to be protected by Yazidi forces

Women's Slave Market in the 21st century

Thousands of Yazidi women & girls were abducted and forced into sexual slavery by the Islamic State. About 2,800 Yazidis remained in captivity and their whereabouts unknown.
#YazidiGenocide

A 14-year-old Yazidi girl was kidnapped by Islamic State terrorist groups from Sinjar. She was held captive for 28 days before escaping.

#YazidiGenocide

One ISIS member at the back shouted Allahu Akbar 3 times. The others repeated it after him, and he ordered them to shoot.
I jumped and lay vertically in front of the other men: Khuder a survivor of #YazidiGenocide

حيدر، كان يعمل مصلحا للدراجات الهوائية في سوق سنجار، يروي بألم كيف طاردته داعش حيث تمكن من إنقاذ عائلته باعجوبة الا أبنتة الصغيرة - يوڤا كانت تبلغ من العمر ٤ سنوات - التي وقعت من السيارة ولم يستطيعوا إنقاذها.
#الابادة_الايزيدية

تم بيع مروان، ١١ سنة، لأكثر من 12 مرة وأجبروه على اعتناق الإسلام بعدما خطفة مجرمي داعش من شنكال

كان أبو جاسم يضربني يوميا حتى أجبرني على اعتناق الدين الإسلامي، وبدأ يضربني كي أقرأ القرآن أيضا، وقال إن لم تتعلم سأقتلك.

#الابادة_الايزيدية

"كان داعش يهاجم الجبل (جبل #سنجار) ابي و شقيقي حملوا السلاح و أبي سلمني هذا السلاح وقال لي اذهبوا أنتي و والدتك وأخواتكِ، وانا حملت السلاح للدفاع عن شرفي و كرامتي وللدفاع عن عائلتي." شاهية شاهين ناجية من #الابادة_الايزيدية

When the Islamic State came, they surrounded the house. They separated the men, women, & girls.
They ordered our men to convert to Islam, but they refused. They put the girls in our 3 cars & took them away. When we were able to leave the house, we saw that our men had been killed

Watch it, then decide if you are “strong” enough.

Yazidi Girls Slave Market

It has been six years:
The majority of Yazidis are still in IDP camps
Sinjar, the Yazidi homeland in Iraq, is still destroyed
Still 2,800 Yazidis are held captive by ISIS terrorists
Still Yazidis are unable to bury their loved ones who were killed in 2014
#YazidiGenocide

“They asked us if there was anyone who didn’t want to convert to Islam. Of course, anyone who said no would be killed. No one dared to refuse.” Khider, 28-year-old, who escaped of ISIS captivity.
#YazidiGenocide

These 3 Yazidi men were survivors of an ISIS mass execution in their village of Kocho where ISIS killed hundreds of men and kidnapped entire the village people (women, girls, and children) in August 2014.

I called my sister, expecting her husband would answer the phone.
The terrorist picked up.
I asked, Where is my sister?
He answered, “ I killed him and injured his wife.”

#YazidiGenocide

The story of Sahir, who was forcibly recruited by ISIS at the age of 15. He was kidnapped by ISIS from Sinjar in 2014.

The story of the child
Suzan was six years old when she separated from her mother. She was bought to be servant for an ISIS member, then sold and bought again.

#YazidiGenocide

Randa, 8, who survived 5 years of IS captivity
I was sold so many times, I don’t remember anymore.
I was a child when they made me marry. They made me suffer.
I want IS to be held accountable for what they did to me.

"The youngest girl I examined was 8-year-old. And she was about eight months in the hands of ISIS. She was sold 10 times. That means in the period of 8 months she was raped hundreds of times.” Psychologist Dr. J.I. Kizilhan, a trauma specialist from Germany
#YazidiGenocide

On August 3, 2014, ISIS invaded Sinjar City and the surrounding area trapping thousands of Yazidis, who escaped to the nearby Sinjar mountains. Today, hundreds of families still live in tents on the Sinjar mountain as their houses were destroyed by ISIS.

More than 80 mass graves have been discovered in the Yazidi region of Iraq, where hundreds of Yazidi civilians have been summarily executed and buried by ISIS terrorists. Yet, 2,800+ Yazidi women and girls remain in ISIS captivity after being sold as sex slaves in Iraq and Syria.

On August 3rd, 2014, the Yazidis had no time to pack up to flee.
They didn’t know they’d have to walk for days without food nor water.
The summer heat on Mount Sinjar that can reach 50℃ in the summer took many lives of vulnerable children and elderly people.

#YazidiGenocide

Thousands of Yazidi women & girls, some as young as 9 years old, were sold in slave markets in Iraq & Syria. Passed from the ISIS terrorist to terrorist as chattel, they endure brutal rapes & are punished with severe beatings & gang rapes when they try to escape.
#YazidiGenocide

For several days in August 2014, thousands of #Yazidi were in Mount #Sinjar, no power, no food or water, no communications. No one knew at any time ISIS would attack them. Those were the worst days in many Yazidi people’s lives. Many children and elderly died of thirst & hunger.

Darling is a Yazidi baby died of thirst on Mount Sinjar after ISIS occupy their village in Sinjar. Her father managed to cover her small body under the shade of a tree.
