ERBIL, Iraq — On Sunday, the Islamic State began attacking villages
Sunday August 10th, 2014 at 8:01 AM

World News | Breaking US News And International News Headlines - GlobalPost

ERBIL, Iraq — On Sunday, the Islamic State began attacking villages of first Yazidis and then Shabaks and finally Christians. As they continue to push forward toward the Kurdish capital Erbil, they have left in their wake hundreds of thousands of displaced families. Of those they capture, some say they are being forced to convert or die. Others speak of mass executions and kidnappings of women and children. With the havoc reeked in these areas and families left homeless and even starving, facts are hard to ascertain, but GlobalPost‘s Tracey Shelton has been on the ground documenting the plight of families as they flee into uncertainty.
