In recent weeks, Iraqi and United Nation’s workers have exhumed what they believe to be the remains of 30 bodies of Yazidi victims of Islamic State militants from one of dozens of mass graves in the region. Thousands were killed and thousands more remain missing after being captured and enslaved by IS in what the United Nations has called a possible genocide. VOA’s Heather Murdock has this report from Kocho in Iraq.
