Terrorists in Iraq and Syria are holding over 3,000 Yazidi hostages, a Yazidi activist once imprisoned by the” Islamic State” (ISIS) terrorist organization said Wednesday, according to AFP.
"At this moment there are 3,400 people in detention who are Syrian or Iraqi," Nadia Murad Basee Taha told Greek President Prokopis Pavlopoulos during a visit to Athens.
"I call on you to convey my voice to the European Union because thousands of women and small children continue to be held hostage," said the 21-year-old Taha, a member of one of the Iraqi minorities hardest hit by jihadist atrocities.
