Yazidi woman kidnapped by ISIS in Iraq rescued from Gaza by Israel
Foreign Ministry says Fawzia Amin Sido was taken captive at 11 and sold to terror group supporter in Gaza, where she was held for 10 years before being reunited with her family
In a heartwarming and miraculous turn of events, a Yazidi woman who was kidnapped by ISIS in Iraq has been rescued from Gaza by Israel. Foreign Ministry officials have confirmed that Fawzia Amin Sido was taken captive at the tender age of 11 and sold to a supporter of the terror group in Gaza. She was held in captivity for 10 long years before finally being reunited with her family.
The rescue of Fawzia Amin Sido highlights the ongoing tragedy of the Yazidi community at the hands of ISIS. The Yazidis, a minority religious group in Iraq, have faced persecution and violence at the hands of the terror group for several years. Thousands of Yazidi women and girls have been abducted, enslaved, and subjected to unspeakable horrors by ISIS fighters.
Fawzia’s rescue also sheds light on the role that Israel has played in providing humanitarian assistance to victims of terrorism and conflict. Despite the political tensions in the region, Israel has a history of providing medical treatment, humanitarian aid, and assistance to individuals in need, regardless of their nationality or religion. The rescue of Fawzia Amin Sido is a testament to Israel’s commitment to upholding human rights and standing up against terrorism.
The story of Fawzia Amin Sido’s rescue serves as a reminder of the resilience and strength of the human spirit. Despite facing unimaginable challenges and hardships, she never lost hope and persevered until she was finally reunited with her loved ones. Her journey from captivity to freedom is a symbol of courage, resilience, and the power of hope.
As we celebrate Fawzia Amin Sido’s rescue, let us also remember the thousands of other Yazidi women and girls who are still missing or held in captivity by ISIS. Their stories must not be forgotten, and the international community must continue to work towards their safe return and justice for the atrocities they have endured.
In the midst of darkness and despair, Fawzia Amin Sido’s rescue shines as a beacon of hope and humanity. It is a reminder that even in the face of unspeakable evil, there are acts of kindness, compassion, and solidarity that can bring light and healing to those in need.
