Two
Yazidi women who were brutally gang raped by ISIS and kept as sex slaves have
received an award in recognition of their bravery.
Nadia Murad and Lamiya Aji
Bashar were among thousands of women and girls abducted, tortured and sexually
abused by Islamic State fighters in Iraq in 2014.
The
Yazidi are a small, religious sect whose beliefs combine elements of several ancient
Middle Eastern religions. Islamic
State considers them devil-worshippers.
