They wait in the knowledge that the perpetrators of the genocide against them have yet to be properly held
to account, and with thousands of Yazidis still missing.
As Murad wrote in comments to mark the anniversary: “The continued suffering, fear and uncertainty in
the Yazidi community show that the genocide process is ongoing.”
“If the international community refuses to exchange platitudes for swift action, the Islamic State’s genocidal
campaign against Yazidis will prevail.”
