Power vacuum in Iraq’s Sinjar prevents Yazidi refugees’ return

The defeat of the ISIL in the northern Iraqi town of Sinjar in 2015 has left a power vacuum.

The area is rife with various armed groups vying for control and the lack of agreement among them has prevented thousands of people from the minority Yazidi community from returning home.
