Relentless Pursuit of Justice and Accountability Continues: 9 Years Since the Yazidi Genocide

Baghdad, 03 August 2023 – On this fateful day, nine years ago, Iraq’s Yazidi community suffered one of the most horrid atrocities in modern history, in what UNITAD has found clear and convincing evidence to legally qualify it as a crime of genocide. Coming upon the 9th commemoration of the Yazidi genocide today, we reiterate our commitment to the pursuit of justice for victims and survivors, ensuring that perpetrators of such heinous crimes are held accountable, no matter where they go, or how long it takes.
