Burial Ceremony for 41 Yezidi Genocide Victims

Today, the families of 41 victims of the Yezidi Genocide in Qani, Hardan, and Kocho villages finally laid their remains to rest.

These burial ceremonies serve as a stark reminder of the enduring impact of the genocide on the Yezidi community. The urgent imperative to exhume, identify, and return victims to their families underscores the need for collective healing. Providing a proper resting place for the departed allows survivors to begin their journey towards solace and closure.
