Yazidi leader killed in air strike by Turkey four years after genocide – Ankara: He was one of most wanted PKK terrorists | The Jerusalem Post

On Wednesday, hundreds of Yazidis, members of a religious minority in Iraq, gathered in the village of Kocho to commemorate the 2014 genocide perpetrated by Islamic State. Hundreds of families in the village were systematically separated. The women and children sold as slaves, while the men machine-gunned, and their bodies dumped in mass graves. An hour after the ceremony was over, an air strike hit one of the trucks that had departed, killing several people.
