On 3 August 2014, Islamic State (ISIS) militants launched a genocide against the Yazidi community in Sinjar, northern Iraq, which led to the death and disappearance of thousands.

To mark the anniversary of the genocide, JRS created a video series with the stories of the survivors so that their voices may be heard.
