Yazidi Woman Rescued from Gaza After Decade of Captivity

A complex international operation has freed a Yazidi woman kidnapped by ISIS at age 11, reuniting her with her family in Iraq.

Fawzia Amin Sido, a Yazidi woman abducted by ISIS at age 11, was rescued from Gaza after being held captive for a decade.
The rescue involved a coordinated effort between Israeli forces, the US, Jordan, and other international partners.
Sido was forced into marriage with a Hamas fighter in Gaza and subjected to years of abuse, eventually escaping after her captor's death.
The Iraqi government requested US assistance to facilitate her return home, leading to a secretive extraction operation.
The United Nations has condemned the actions against Yazidis by ISIS as genocide and crimes against humanity.
