Ultimatum Over Shingal: Ezidis Face Renewed Uncertainty as March 10 Deadline Looms

Dissolve by 10 March—or face attack. That was the message delivered to the YBŞ in Mosul, placing Shingal’s Ezidis at another crossroads. For a people still rebuilding after genocide, the prospect of imposed security decisions revives a familiar and dangerous pattern. Ezidi leaders warn that dismantling local defense forces without a binding administrative and security agreement could force new displacement and leave the homeland of Sharfadin exposed once again.

The Hasna A. Appeal and Crimes Against the Ezidi People

The appeal case of Hasna A. has become a critical test of whether European courts are prepared to fully acknowledge and prosecute crimes committed under ISIS rule. For Ezidi survivors, the hearings were not an abstract legal exercise but a painful confrontation with lived trauma. The recognition of enslavement in a European courtroom carries profound meaning, affirming that crimes committed against the Ezidi people are neither forgotten nor beyond accountability.
