Civilians were besieged in the city for more than seven months with rapidly decreasing access to food resources. The extremists inside the city needed the civilian population to act as a deterrent to advancing Iraqi forces. They were forced to stay in their homes or corralled into homes of neighbors. One of these women, who I was able to speak to on the phone before she escaped Zinjili, claimed the Islamic State would take one of her children at night and bring him back in the morning to force the family to stay. To flee means crossing an active and brutal frontline, hoping your family makes it safely across before another mortar falls or an Islamic State snipper sees you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/524955f6e4b0a201cbc0db36/1510241067484-XGHC3ZSKQJJYK5QE01LH/Mosul-Portfolio+01_63-sm.jpg MOSUL Civilians flee al-Zinjili neighborhood in west Mosul, one of the last remaining neighborhoods under Islamic State control during the nine-month battle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/524955f6e4b0a201cbc0db36/1510241048059-8U8CNVIK6KXNYMSRUV02/Mosul-Portfolio+01_60-sm.jpg MOSUL A husband holds the hand of his wife as they flee heavy fighting in al-Zinjili neighborhood. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/524955f6e4b0a201cbc0db36/1510241082717-DKAW9J3EBLETO8HBDIOL/Mosul-Portfolio+01_62-sm.jpg MOSUL After emerging through the Iraqi army frontline in al-Zinjili neighborhood in western Mosul, a civilian cries out for god. When intense fighting comes to a neighborhood, remaining civilians have to decide whether it is safer to stay in their homes, or chance the streets to pacified areas beyond the Iraqi forces frontline. Many civilians expect to find a hostile Iraqi army, as the Islamic State circulates the idea that they will be murdered by approaching forces, adding to the difficult calculation to whether a family stays or flees.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/524955f6e4b0a201cbc0db36/1551348382603-R9WJ81UJ6JS7YO3B511S/Andrea_DiCenzo_NYT_09.jpg MOSUL A young woman screams frantically after she crossed the Iraqi Army’s frontline to escape fighting in al-Zinjili neighborhood.

Each had a plastic bag hung above them, containing their meagre possessions. The air stank of bile, urine and cleaning chemicals. Off camera, others lay in a fetid corridor, pale and weak from what they said was tainted prison food. Some had been kept there for weeks, sleeping and eating together. It was one of two cells in which suspects were corralled as they awaited interrogation by Iraqi intelligence officers before trial.

After her husband was killed in 2014, she said she was placed in a dormitory for ISIS widows and their children. According to Omry, conditions in the dormitory were deliberately difficult, a tactic to pressure the women to remarry other ISIS fighters. Omry eventually did. She and her husband surrendered to US-led SDF fighters after they entered her neighborhood in Raqqa. Omry hopes this is the end of her nightmare.

After running out of the caches of weapons they captured from the Iraqi and Syrian governments, the Islamic State did something no other terror group had ever done: they designed and build their own ordnance. This part of the market was repurposed by the Islamic State (ISIS) and turned into a smelting factory for homemade ISIS-produced mortars. Researchers always suspected this part of the market was used for producing weapons.

The city is strategically located along the main highway between two of ISIS’s most important cities: Raqqa and Mosul. This made the remote desert town a choice location for much of ISIS' deadly weapon manufacturing facilities. While the city of Tal Afar once had a population of around 200,000, it was virtually deserted when Iraqi security forces retook the city, surprising the forces and humanitarian actors prepared to receive civilians. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/524955f6e4b0a201cbc0db36/1593103899545-TKJ291SVN930EGCJTBXA/DiCenzo_WIRED_ISIS_Weapons_08.jpg ISIS Industrial Complex - WIRED Magazine The majority of the arms confiscated from the Islamic State were manufactured outside the country.

The unit is searching for unexploded improvised explosive devices, as well as any potential remaining Islamic State fighters. The involvement of the YPJ and PKK in Sinjar’s liberation highlights the areas unique location along ethnic and territorial fault lines in the region. Female fighters in the YPJ militia were instrumental in fighting back the Islamic State in 2014, allowing the Yezidi refugees trapped on top of Sinjar mountain safe passage into Syria. Thousands of Yezidis were saved in the rescue mission as hundreds of women and men aligned with the militia were killed in the fighting.

In the summer of 2014, the Islamic State swept into the Yezidi heartland of Sinjar, killing thousands of men, abducting women and girls for enslavement, and sending young boys to military camps. By the Islamic State’s extreme views, Yazidis were considered devil-worshippers, fit only for enslavement, indoctrination or eradication. Thousands of abducted Yazidis lie in mass graves, or remain missing. The campaign against them has been recognized as attempted genocide, and the shocking testimony of survivors brought international attention to what once a hermetic community.

Despite being liberated for more than a decade, most of the city of Sinjar still lies in ruins, with basic services barely working. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/524955f6e4b0a201cbc0db36/1687626666584-TIAD9ZIPFAU9WWJVUJ2O/23Aug2019_DiCenzo_Iraq_Sinjar-50.jpg Knotted Prayers Residents of Sinjar, northern Iraq, at a sheep market being held in the city. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/524955f6e4b0a201cbc0db36/1687625780534-0103DC2B62ICQ4V6H2AI/CanonFemalePhotographerAward2023_17.jpg Knotted Prayers Thousands of Yazidis gather for a candle lighting ceremony to celebrate Yezidi New Year in Lalish, northern Iraq On April 19, 2016. Families bring picnics, pay their respect to religious elders, and play traditional games dotted around the holy Yezidi site. There is a joyous, almost festival atmosphere to the two day event. While families continue to grieve for loved ones remaining in Islamic State captivity, the community dedicated this year’s celebration to those kidnapped and vowed to continue to practice the Yezidi faith and keep their community strong. The Yezidis practice an ancient pre-Zoroastrian religion within their conservative community in northern Iraq. Their position on Iraq’s ethnic and territorial fault lines, and the unique blend of Islamic and Christian influences within their religion, have long left them open to coercion and persecution. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/524955f6e4b0a201cbc0db36/1687626504662-W737ZPIF31A81GR39FX6/Knotted+Prayers+-+website+gallery_89.jpg Knotted Prayers https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/524955f6e4b0a201cbc0db36/1687625816416-ZZLWU3LMYL2NP54I0B1T/CanonFemalePhotographerAward2023_20.jpg Knotted Prayers A newly paved road has been one of the only repairs done to the heavy damaged market area of the city of Sinjar, northern Iraq, after it was liberated by US-backed Kurdish forces in 2015. Some Yezidi residents have returned to Sinjar, but most of the city lies in ruins. While the Islamic State overran the city nearly a decade ago, targeting the Yezidi minority known to the region, life in the city has barely been able to heal, repair, and rebuild. Most of Sinjar is destroyed; bureaucratic barriers and lack of services continue to make it difficult for Yezidis in displacement camps to return. http://www.andreadicenzo.com/select daily 1.0
