DeepDive: On August 3, 2014, Daesh fighters invaded northern Iraq, home to the Yazidi community, in a brutal genocide that shocked the world. Thousands were murdered and buried in mass graves. Women and children were enslaved, and tens of thousands were displaced, forced to seek refuge in camps for internally displaced people. Though international attention has moved on, the Yazidi community continues to live with the trauma of that nightmare. This tragic event didn't just happen on August 3; its effects are felt every day. As the Yazidis mark the 10th anniversary of the genocide, our latest Deep Dive explores their history, suffering, and resilience.
