A Yazidi girl for sale $9,000. An ad says shes beautiful, hardworking, and a virgin. She is also just 11 years old. This advertisement is used by ISIS fighters to barter for sex slaves. Every ad exposes important clues like locations which will help save Yazidi girls from the militants taking advantage of them. There is a city in Syria called Aleppo. This is where ISIS came and captured a handful of Yazidis. In an attempt to escape the fighters, hundreds were massacred, while they captured girls for human trafficking.
There is a lack of support from the international community. “No government or experts trained us,” “We learned by just doing it, over the last year and a half, we gained the experience.” Says a network that freed 240 Yazidis. A number of the liberators have been executed by ISIS while trying to locate Yazidi slaves. Shrem (one of the leaders of this group) insists that its worth it: “Whenever I save someone, it gives me strength and it gives me faith to keep going until I have been able to save them all.” Once they manage to make contact, the prisoners are told when and where to go to meet the liberators. They usually tell them to meet in a nearby car. It can take weeks to get out safely when leaving ISIS territory. They tend to switch vehicles, and wait in safe houses. Thousands of Yazidis remain enslaved inside ISIS territory. Shrem believes time is running out to save them. He is calling on the international community to take action.
I believe if it was 50 and not 5,000 Americans that were being raped every day by ISIS, would the US stay silent? Of course not. There would be operations, everything would be done to save them. We need to tell our Government to take action as a good citizen. We need to be the role models and show the world that we are kind people and we justify the unjust.

Isis needs to stop sex trafficking of minors.By this site we are up to date on whats happening to Yaizdi girls. Is very disappointing the virginity of a girl shouldn’t have price nor given to someone they don’t know. this is disgusting how can they pay for this act. Adults buying this girls need to realize is not right. would they like their daughter to be in this position? is gross…

I think that it is a terrible thing that is happening right now. It reminds me of the child soldiers in places like Sierra Leone who had been corrupted and forced to take drugs and be in the middle of violence at such a young age.

From reading and understanding this article, I was so shocked to have found out that Isis is starting to use children as a part of sex trafficking. I am appalled by the actions of isis, and glad there are people out there trying to free the Yaizdi people. I am disappointed in the United States though, as “good well minded” people we should part take in these search and rescues. I appreciate the time you out forth in this current event.

This is a great article to go further more into detail and to write about especially because this article is about the minority group of Kurds and I can personally relate because I have a really close friend that’s Kurdish. It’s unbelievable that this is happening in ISIS territory and how the enslavement of these Kurdish girls are growing an awareness. This article should be taken as a motivation to speak up and bringing awareness to this issue and similar issues so it can come across the eyes of the government.

I think that the whole entire idea of selling children, especially for sex, is way above and beyond disgust. people don’t understand how cruel this world really is. I hope that one day everyone will be so against ISIS that they will just be torn down. the other day we were talking about power, well I think that the ISIS thinks that they have more than just power. the more time the government waits around the more power the ISIS gets.

thank you for sharing this information, that way many people have knowledge of what is going on around the world. We definitely need to get the word out so maybe the us government can join forces and help save many Yaizdi people because its extremely sad that isis that’s this people out of no where to torture them.

It’s so great that people are liberating these slaves. No man or woman should feel lesser than the man or woman next to them or be treated as such. It’s also nice to see that people focus on more than just problems that affect them directly.

Its heartbreaking to see topics like these but this is what our world has come to. We as Americans of the united states need to stand up as a whole and we need to find a way to stop ISIS.
