  • About the series: The Yazidis are a Kurdish religious community. Since its inception, around 74 genocides have been committed against them. The youngest and the most systematic persecution was done by the IS terrorist militia. This community has been more racially exterminated than any other, because they are regarded as devil worshipers. With this photo story, I wish to draw attention to the situation of the Yazidis, the main victims of this conflict.
