28.11.2015 - Fadhel, 42, stands in front of a burnt building covered in ISIS graffiti in the city of Sinjar,Nineveh province, northern Iraq. He lived in the city before it was captured by ISIS in early August, 2014. His two young nieces are held captive by ISIS in the Syrian city of Rakka. The city was liberated from ISIS control on November 13, following coalition airstrikes and a ground-force offensive by Kurdish forces made up of Yazidi, Peshmerga and PKK soldiers. All infrastructure has been destroyed and few of its former inhabitants have returned.
