The story of the Yazidi girl Sarab Nayef
Sarab Nayef (18 years old), in 2014, during the attack of ISIL, she was captured, or rather enslaved to one of the commanders of the ISIL terrorist formations. Sarab has passed through all the horrors of captivity and does not want to remember what she saw and experienced there.
We will tell you a different story that happened after her release in 2019. After her release, Sarab was sent to a camp where Yazidis were held, who were in the same situation as herself. But soon her parents found her, and she went to another camp to join her family.
"It was very difficult to live in the camp, there were no means of subsistence, the people there just survived as best they could. A few months later, working hard and gaining a small amount of money, I opened my own shop for sewing and selling women's clothing, and this helped me, another survivor, to find the moral support of my family and community. I thought it would be very difficult, but I was able to.
My goal in the camp was to do something useful and not "give up" - this is my message to encourage Yazidi women to work and help the men of their family who do not have a source of livelihood. In Sinjar, after the events of 2014, a lot has changed, especially public opinion, they not only overcame stereotypes, but also helped us in rehabilitation and adaptation.
I survived, and when I fell to my knees, I got up, and I feel free, " Sarab said.
