The SDF managed to free hundreds of Yazidis in Syria after ISIS\u2019 defeat in its last stronghold in the town of Baghuz in Deir ez-Zor Governorate, eastern Syria. However, many remain missing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savethechildren.net\/news\/about-1300-yazidi-children-still-missing-10-years-after-genocide\">Save the Children<\/a>, ISIS killed, captured and displaced&nbsp;all 400,000 Yazidi people&nbsp;living in Sinjar on Aug. 3, 2014. About 10,000 Yazidis were killed or abducted,&nbsp;half of all those executed were children, according to a report by&nbsp;multi-national researchers in the journal PLoS Medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Nearly all (93%)&nbsp;of those who eventually died on Mount Sinjar from injuries or lack of food and water were also children,&#8221; the organization added. &#8220;Of the around 6,400 abducted Yazidis, it\u2019s estimated about half were children, according to the Yazidi-led nonprofit Nadia\u2019s Initiative.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Boys as young as seven were sent to ISIS training camps and girls as young as nine were subjected to rape and sexual enslavement, shows a&nbsp;Save the Children report. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Save the Children called on international and local authorities to prioritize providing comprehensive support for Yazidi children\u2019s mental
