The eyes of the investigator are between two photographs. In one, a young girl, perhaps 10, wears a colorful shirt, hair is empty. In another, a woman, face, looks at the camera, covered with an indefinite age and black hijab.

The first picture is a hundreds of images of young girls who are hopeless to find the rulers in Iraq and Syria, who are kidnapped by the Islamic province of Iraq and Syria. The pictures of older women come from different sources.

The woman, who examines the photos, was able to help confirm an identity and finding the details that could cause someone’s freedom. But not a professional investigator. His name is the executive director of the Non-Commercial Director of Paris Ibrahim and from the day to Suburban Maryland.

Nights, with the glow of a laptop screen, hoping to find the captured women ten years ago, hoping to find the captured women.

“Sometimes, night late, I try to see if this girl can be determined,” he said. Ibrahim, when looking for faces for any hint, maybe, perhaps or a Telltale mole – can look at the same person.

“Ten years brings many changes to one’s face and appearance,” he said. “It’s not easy.”

Missing people are all members of religious minorities, and the United Nations, which is a certain central terrorist campaign known as the Islamic state launched by Isis commissionThe militants were killed, being enslaved, raped and tortured. He was killed in 3100 in 3100 and 6,800 people were abducted in August 2014, a study Calculations.

Rescuers

Now, since the caliphate of the Islamic state in Syria and Iraq, for half a year, was not calculated for about 2,600 writers, according to Ms. Ibrahim’s non-profit, free Yezidi Foundation; In 2022, the United Nations Refugee Agency set up about 3,000 areas. The basis that uses an alternative spell for ethnic groups provides support services to members of the diaspora.

Many are dead, but Ms. Ibrahim is hopeful that 1000 is in theft, and the kidnapers or fighters are promised to be relocated to the Middle East.

Although the United Nations Yezidis was called the treatment of genocide, the UN agency authorized the evidence of ISIS savagery The operation stopped last year. There is no official body dedicated to the finding of women and children.

This task was taken by Ms. Ibrahim, who left Iraq in the early 1990s, Like Abraham, survivors, family members, information and amateur detectives. He met with people located in the New York Times, Maryland, Germany, Australia, Iraq and Syria.

They described a modern underground rail, which travel often will start with the pieces of information and photographs shared with messaging applications. Sometimes this information is delivered to the families of the missing, some recruits to reunite human smugglers with their favorite. Other times are shared with local authorities.

A member of the unofficial network Abdaurlah Abbas Khalaf released the Islamic state from the Islamic state in 2014, using work as a beekeeper and honey seller in Aleppo of Syria in 2014. Mr. Kuraf, located in Iraq and Iraq, says other captives, including various methods, including the release of the military online.

“We entered the ISIS telegram channels, and we claimed that we were members of the work,” he said. To look more convincing, he said that sometimes he will ask about weapons and equipment.

“They greeted us,” said Mr. Chalaf, “and then they would send their pictures to sell girls or boys after a while.” As claim to discuss the price, he said he would try to learn where the prisoners were.

Mr. Khalaf, women and children shopping for the shopping, as there were citizens, shared images. Images showed the forum users who greed on sexual slaves. Times could not verify the source of the images independently because it has been specially or deleted since many channels.

During the periods of the conquest of Syria and Iraq, the height of the government and the bondage and sale of the government were openly conducted. He was more restrained, and experts said. Women and girls received online and then purchased and then transferred the national borders silently, they silently transferred the work of those who complicate them all.

“The summer in the summer is no longer available in the Great Islamic State Khalifat era.” Even after the fall of the group’s caliphate. “

According to investigators, experts and news reports, attacks were found in the houses that are in Turkey and the members of the work Gaza Strip. Other spells ended with their headlines in captive and dangerous desert camps.

According to the Nadya initiative, another non-profit group working with the written, they were able to return to the families of about 3,600 in the initiative of Nadya.

One of them, Sherine Hakrash, said he was captured with two daughters in Syria until he was sold to the Saudi man. Ms. Hakrash, who was sustainable and sometimes tears from his new house in Australia, said in the third, he said he was very painful to talk about what the girls look like.

“I don’t know anything about them,” he said. “If they are alive. If I need me. How’s your situation.”

In the last year, the rise in the Middle East and more complex efforts to find and save missing people. In Iraq, for example, the government recently led the group of international experts investigating the crimes of business wind down the work.

The Obstery of President Bashar al-Assad in Syria led both the Yazidis and fear. They want to use the opportunity to seek the missing enemy, but instability can lead to an Isis animation.

Arrest camp

As their caliphate falls in 2019, Isis fighters fled from the region, and they capture some with others. In many cases, women were forced to marry those who kidnapped, and they had to enter into large clans that could traffic in the world.

In Germany in December Federal prosecutors Two accused, members of the work, which are sexually exploited by the work, said they had two young women who kept as a slave. The girls were captured in a couple of 5 and 12 years old. A woman abducted in Gaza, 11 years old American officials sayThen he was sold and was forced to marry a Hamas fighter, after receiving the Oxty.

The captives for some writers were still deteriorating after retaining themselves.

Some ended in a nightmare of Al Holshin, a nightmare of a detention camp in the eastern city of Syria. They are forced to live with the captives of the wrestlers and the members of Isis. Thousands of people are held dangerous – the murders are common and informed about them incision.

For the rescuers, Al Hole offers a special problem for the network. The captives do not want to recognize themselves as the fears of the members of the workmen to the fear of their religious police. Others can be captured when it was very young to know their inheritance.

“They were enslaved on the edge of the Hol Camp, they are bondent in them – torture, everything,” said Cihan Hanan, the director of the camp will help bring the captives in the camp together with their investigators.

A member of the informal rescue network Barjas Khidhir Sabri, currently a written from the Sinjar province in Iraq, lives for IDPs. That is 100 miles away from Al Hol.

Using his tent, his thoughts and a little from a smartphone, Mr. Sabri, Men, who lived in Al Hol Hol, has developed their own website.

“I don’t trust them and they don’t trust me,” he said. “I have to work with them. I regret any way so we can save women and daughters, so it’s worth it.”

Ms. Ibrahim said the Yezidi Foundation was not engaged in the members of the work. However, many families shadow the disgusting and even desperate, and even pay – those who belong to the terrorist group, Mr. Sabri said.

When a woman in the camp is defined as captured the possible writer, Ms. Hanaan works with security officers to organize a discreet interview.

Ms. Hanaan, for at least the last two years, released new writers girls and women.

But it’s not always simple.

Some familiarities of their lovers are afraid of their children, and the writer cannot be accepted by the writing community. Some of the fear of the fear returning home to be just defective. Others caught as young children also do not know anything but their families of buyers and they do not know their knowledge.

“We must be sure that the woman can choose in a safe space,” said Abraham, Non-Women.

Marwa Nawaf Abas, embraced the opportunity of freedom.

“I was captured like a sexual slave for three months and sold to several ises terrorists,” said Ms. Abas, 21 in an interview.

After escaping the accessible in the Syrian city of Raqqa, in 2014, Ms. Abas was offered a temporary protection by the local family. He communicated with his uncle and his family took him to take him from a territory managed by the Kurdish.
