AS IT IS 2016-03-31 Yazidis Exchanged for IS Prisoners 以雅兹迪人交换IS犯人

More than 50 Yazidi women and children were exchanged last week for Islamic State prisoners held by Kurdish forces in Syria.

Two IS commanders were exchanged for the women and children.

Kurds holding the two were part of the armed wing of the Syrian Kurdish Democratic Union Party, known as the YPG.

The women and children were returned home to Sinjar in northern Iraq. Sinjar is the main city for Yazidis in Iraq. It was liberated2 from IS last year by Kurdish Peshmerga forces. Those fighters are supported by the U.S.-led coalition3.

The Yazidis were taken from the same town 19 months ago, according to a Kurdish news agency.

“I have talked to some of them yesterday,” said Dawud Sheik Kalo, a Yazidi fighter. He said the women and children are safe.

A former prisoner told the Kurdish news agency she spent nine months in Iraq and 11 months in Syria.

A teenage Yazidi girl said her family was taken by IS.

“After we got to Syria, they separated the men from us,” she said. Media reports made no mention of Yazidi men being a part of the exchange. 

Thousands of Yazidis were abducted5 or killed by IS in northern Iraq beginning in 2014. Women and girls were forced into sexual slavery by IS members, human rights groups say.
