Canada has announced a plan to resettle hundreds of Yazidi refugees and displaced Iraqis. All measures will also be taken to reunite the families of refugees and survivors of the 2014 war.

Canadian Minister of Refugees and Immigration Marco Mendezino announced a new policy to increase the level of reception of Yazidis in Canada.

"The Yazidis are among the most vulnerable refugees in the world, having survived violence, torture, and even genocide at the hands of ISIS " Mendezino said in a statement.

Recall that the Yazidis are a very old people and a religious minority, in 2014, ISIS carried out a genocide against them, killing more than 3,000 Yazidis and enslaving at least 7,000 women. The number of Yazidis living in Iraq and Syria is 550 thousand people, most of them live in the north of Iraq.

According to Radio Canada International, about 1,400 refugees have resettled in Canada since 2017, most of them women and children who "escaped" from the hands of terrorists.
