Dozens of Yazidi refugees with banners in their hands gathered outside the United Nations office in the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan, Erbil, to express their disappointment at the lack of assistance from the UN.
According to the latest data published in September 2021 by the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG), there are 241,937 Syrian refugees in the Kurdish region of Iraq, of which several thousand are Yezidis.
After the ISIS attack in 2014, when the terrorist group took control of vast territories in Syria and Iraq, almost 2 million people from the provinces of Iraq and Syrian Kurdistan found refuge in Iraqi Kurdistan. Since then, more than 1 million of them have left Kurdistan, but 926,018 people still do not want to return to their homes due to ongoing security problems and economic instability. And the areas where the Yezidi population lived were practically destroyed to the ground. The population was left without homes and infrastructure.
