Germany classes Islamic militants' crimes against Yazidis as genocide

German lawmakers have recognised as genocide crimes dedicated by so-called Islamic State militants towards minority Yazidis in Iraq in 2014.

The jihadist group is accused of killing 1000's of Yazidis, enslaving as much as 7,000 of their ladies and ladies and displacing a lot of the 550,000-strong neighborhood from their ancestral house.

The Yazidis are an historical non secular minority primarily primarily based in jap Syria and northwest Iraq.

They had been considered by the Islamic State militants as 'satan worshippers' for his or her religion which mixes Zoroastrian, Christian, Manichean, Jewish and Muslim beliefs.
