Yazidi Survivors

On the 3rd of August 2014 at 2:30 at night I was chatting with a friend on Facebook. At some point he warned me that ISIS is heading towards my village. I replied that there is nothing to fear about, we are in our village, we are peaceful, we have no weapons. I thought that they will not harm us.

Half an hour later I’ve heard the first gun shot. Most of my family were sleeping on the roof because it was a hot night. When I heard more gunshots I closed my laptop and I went upstairs to inform my father.

That was at 3 o’clock. We waited for few hours and at 7 in the morning we left our village.
