الذكرى التاسعة للجريمة البشعة التي ارتكبها تنظيم "داعش" الإرهابي بحق الإيزيديين وغيرهم في سنجار العراق في 3 أغسطس عام 2014، مناسبة أليمة تذكر العالم كله بأهمية العمل من أجل ترسيخ مبادئ التسامح والتعايش، ورفض التطرف وازدراء الإنسان بسبب الاختلاف في الدين أو المذهب أو العرق.
Today marks the nine-year anniversary of the acts of genocide that ISIS committed against Yazidis. In a welcome development, the UK government formally acknowledged ISIS' genocide of Yazidis earlier this week.

We applaud that the UK joined us in determining that ISIS committed genocide against Yezidis. Justice and accountability are key for those whose lives have been devastated. We stand with Yezidis and other victim groups on this somber anniversary. https://t.co/czPLo7IVZj
Honoured to speak at this event today, commemorating the 9th anniversary of Daesh atrocities committed against the Yazidis, particularly during the week that the UK government formally acknowledged acts of genocide perpetrated against Yazidis in 2014.
Today is the 9th anniversary from when Daesh (the Islamic State) started committing acts of genocide against the Yazidi people starting in August 2014. Thousands of Yazidis were killed, kidnapped, sold into sexual slavery, and separated from their families.
We must not forget.
