BAGHDAD: Iraqi forces on Saturday uncovered two mass graves in northern Iraq, according to a local Iraqi official. “The two graves contain the remains of 90 victims, most of them were Ezidis,” Mohamed Khalil, the mayor of Sinjar city, told Anadolu Agency.
Though the mayor did not say when the victims were killed, he blamed the Daesh terrorist group for their death. There was no confirmation of the two mass graves by the Iraqi authorities. Sinjar is the traditional home of the Ezidis, a Kurdish ethno-religious community who are dominant in the Nineveh Province in northern Iraq. Kurdish Peshmerga forces have seized control of Sinjar in 2015.
