A Yazidi woman who was kidnapped by ISIS terrorists in Iraq a decade ago has been rescued from captivity in Gaza by the IDF. Fawzi Amin Sido, abducted in 2014 at the age of 11, was freed this week and has been reunited with her family in Iraq.
The Palestinian terrorist holding Sido was recently killed, allowing her to escape and be rescued, according to the IDF. “The young girl was extracted from the Gaza Strip in recent days in a secret operation through the Kerem Shalom Crossing,” the IDF said in a statement. After entering Israel, she was transferred to Jordan via the Allenby Crossing and eventually brought back to her family in Iraq.
The operation, led by the IDF, was carried out with assistance from the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem and members of the international community. The IDF highlighted the operation as evidence of the ongoing connection between Hamas and ISIS, stating that it underscores the “crimes against humanity” perpetrated by these terror groups in Gaza.
“The IDF will continue to act at all times to destroy the infrastructure of the terrorist organization Hamas-ISIS, and to return the abductees,” the statement concluded.

A lot of native born indigenous middle eastern people have Red hair
Just another one of those ”innocent Palestinian civilians” we hear so much about.
The headline is a lie. She wasn’t an 11 year old girl rescued. She was kidnapped 10 years ago at age 11
Something in the article doesn’t add up.
If she was 11 when she was kidnapped in 2014, she should be 21 now. That doesn’t look like a 21-year-old young woman. It actually looks like an 11-year-old girl. Somewhere there’s a typo or mistake…
She was an adopted child. Is every adopted child a hostage?
