Yazidi Woman Testifies About Sexual Enslavement By ISIS

A former ISIS sex slave is urging the U.S. to more aggressively fight the terror group

Nadia Murad, a Yazidi who escaped captivity in 2014, was speaking through a translator to American Senators about her ordeal which included what she described as collective rape after unsuccessfully attempting to escape.

She finally did escape thanks to a family in Mosul who provided her with fake Islamic I-D which enabled her to leave the ISIS controlled city in northern Iraq.

A report released by the United Nations estimates ISIS holds about 35 hundred slaves, subjecting women and children to sexual violence.
