Yazidi Woman Kidnapped By Isis In 2014 At Age 11 Rescued From Gaza, Reunited With Family In Iraq
Happy news. May this be a good omen for the 10/7 hostages, too. | [IsraelTimes] A Yazidi woman who was kidnapped by ISIS from Iraq in 2014 at the age of 11 and transferred to the Gaza Strip has finally been rescued and reunited with her family.
Unverified posts on social media say that Israeli security forces carried out the rescue operation.
In a statement, the Iraqi Foreign Ministry says that the woman, Fawzia Amin Sido, was released through joint efforts “in high coordination” with the US embassies in Baghdad and Amman along with Jordanian authorities.
Jewish philanthropist Steve Maman, dubbed by some as the “Jewish Schindler,” shares a video of her reuniting with her family last night.
“I made a promise to Fawzia the Yazidi who was hostage of Hamas in Gaza that I would bring her back home to her mother in Sinjar,” Maman writes on X. “To her, it seemed surreal and impossible but not to me, my only enemy was time. Our team reunited her moments ago with her mother and family in Sinjar.”
… Her story is a reminder of the brutality faced by Yazidi children, taken without a choice.
Remember, there are still 101 Israelis being held hostage in Gaza.
