Iraq: Yazidi Women Under Attack (Part 3/3)
Part three of three stories in which three women recount the violence and abuse they suffered at the hands of militants.
Amusha was among 196 Yazidis released in January 2015. Now she waits anxiously for news of her 35-year-old daughter, who is believed to be in Raqqa, Syria, where women are sometimes taken to be sold.
Here she talks to our Special Envoy Angelina Jolie, who met with women in Iraq, in recent months.
Tortured. Electrocuted. Sold into slavery. Every day, hundreds of kidnapped women and girls in Iraq and Syria suffer violence and abuse at the hands of militants. Those lucky enough to escape or be released often have no home or family to return to.
