ISIS Fed Yazidi Sex Slave Her 1-Year-Old Son After Starving Her For 3 Days, Iraqi MP Says

A Yazidi sex slave captured by the Islamic State group (ISIS) was deceived into consuming her own 1-year-old child after being starved for three days, an Iraqi politician, Vian Dakhil told the Egyptian TV channel Extra News on Monday, according to several reports.

Dakhil said during the interview that the unidentified Yazidi woman was left to starve for three days and then unwittingly ate her own son when the guards provided the food to her. “One of the women whom we managed to retrieve from ISIS said that she was held in a cellar for three days without food or water,” Dakhil said during the interview, according to a translation by the Middle East Media Research Institute.

“Afterwards, they brought her a plate of rice and meat. She ate the food because she was very hungry,” she said.

“When she was finished they said to her: ‘We cooked your 1-year-old son that we took from you, and this is what you just ate,’” Dakhil said while wiping her tears during the interview, the Independent reported.

Dakhil also claimed during the interview that a 10-year-old girl was raped by ISIS in front of her father and five sisters. She said: “One of the girls said that they took six of her sisters. Her younger sister, a ten-year-old girl, was raped to death in front of her father and sisters. She was ten-years-old.”

ISIS has carried out numerous atrocities against the members of the Yazidi community and slaughtered and killed thousands of innocent people and forced women and children of the religious minority to become sex slaves to them. They have also held several Yazidis as prisoners during their reign of terror. The terror group’s brutal atrocities against the Yazidis were recognized as genocide in 2016, by the United Nations (U.N.).

“No other religious group present in ISIS-controlled areas of Syria and Iraq has been subjected to the destruction that the Yazidis have suffered,” according to the U.N. report.

Yazidis have housed themselves mostly in northern Iraq, according to the Guardian, and there are approximately 700,000 of them globally.

An estimated 3,100 Yazidis were said to have been killed and 6,800 kidnapped in 2014, in order to serve as sex slaves or fighters for the terror group, according to a report obtained by New York Daily News, published by Johns Hopkins University and the London School of Economics and Political Science in May this year.

“Nearly three years on people forget about us but the misery and tragedy is still there and just as real with 420,000 Yazidis living as refugees in Kurdistan in very miserable conditions and thousands of girls still in captivity and tortured,” Dakhil told the Thomson Reuters Foundation in a speech in May in Oslo, according to NY Daily News.

In May, journal PLOS Medicine stated that of the approximately 9,900 Yazidis captured by the terror group two years ago, 3,100 people were killed. ISIS’ methods of killing its captives also included decapitation and several of the people who were captured are still missing.
