FYF’s Work with Missing Yezidis Highlighted in the New York Times
We and others spoke extensively to the The New York Times about the most agonizing issue facing the Yezidi community: the fate of the more than 2,600 missing Yezidis abducted by ISIS during the Yezidi Genocide.
More than 10 years have passed, but the search for our missing never ends. The day to day pain of Yezidi family members is indescribable. Yezidi activists highlighted the glaring absence of any international mechanism to help identify and rescue the thousands of Yezidis abducted.
“The task has been taken up by a sprawling network of activists, survivors, family members, informants and amateur detectives…”
Cases of missing Yezidis are ongoing, including in Syria and in Turkey. It is important to underscore that we will never stop in the search for our kidnapped.
BRING BACK OUR WOMEN AND GIRLS!
