Thousands of Iraq’s Yazidis have fled the Sinjar district again after massive clashes this week between the Iraqi army and a militia tied to the Kurdistan Workers’ Party, or PKK. The displacement is a setback for efforts of the ethno-religious minority to return to their historic heartland after they fled the area during ISIS’ violent occupation. Sinjar is caught in a geopolitical tug of war between Iraq, the Kurdistan region, Iran and Turkey. Yasmine Mosiman reports from Sinjar that those who suffer most are survivors of genocide, who must choose between squalid camps and their contested homeland.
