In a brand-new, original Sky News documentary, 10 Years of Darkness: ISIS & The Yazidis uncovers the harrowing fate of the Yazidi community within the ISIS regime.

Across the hour-long special, award-winning British journalist Alex Crawford delivers an in-depth portrait of the Yazidi community using raw footage from her extensive reporting over the course of a decade from the Middle East.

From the systematic slaughter of the Yazidi people in Sinjar in 2014 and the mass abductions of women and children, the documentary highlights the ensuing humanitarian crisis that still reverberates today.

Through the footage, audiences are given a first-hand look into war zones and how people who are subjected to terror try to navigate their recovery, as Crawford brings into sharp focus the Yazidi community’s relentless search for the missing and their ongoing fight for justice.

Speaking about the project, Alex Crawford, Special Correspondent for Sky News, said: “I have reported on the horrors faced by the Yazidis for over a decade, telling the harrowing stories of the women and children taken as slaves, raped by ISIS.

“The alarming truth – which we explore in this film – is that thousands of them are still being held captive and this brutality continues.”

David Rhodes, Executive Chairman of Sky News, said: “This film has been made possible by our continued investment in on the ground reporting that delivers deep analysis and insight from around the world.

“Alex’s eyewitness accounts over an extensive period show audiences the full story, explaining the context and history and detailing new, horrifying revelations that viewers wouldn’t otherwise know about.”
