Iraq: Yazidi Women Under Attack Part 2/3
Australia for UNHCR
Description
Tortured. Electrocuted. Sold into slavery. Every day, hundreds of kidnapped women and girls in Iraq and Syria suffer violence and abuse at the hands of militants. Those lucky enough to escape or be released often have no home or family to return to. This is the second part of three stories, in which three women recount the violence and abuse they suffered at the hands of militants. “I was crying and begging him to stop, but he wouldn’t listen." Sabreen and Dilvian, her four-year-old sister, were released after months in captivity.
