Shingal – Resistance forces have discovered another mass grave in the south of Shingal region. Near Gir Izer town where the terrorist organization Islamic State began its onslaught on Shingal, combat units discovered a mass grave containing the remains of around 50 Yezidis. Especially men are said to be among those dead, according to an EP correspondent.

Yesterday, another mass grave was discovered by combat units in the north of Shingal city, a few meters away from the Technical Academy. The mass grave is believed to contain the remains of at least 80 Yezidis. This confirms the fear that numerous other mass graves are situated in the south. In the north of the region which has been liberated since December, a total number of 15 mass graves have been found so far.
