As we are celebrating the 'Peak of Summer', we honor the victims of atrocities committed against Yezidis; may all their souls rest in peace. We hope, in the coming festivities and occasions, to see our Yezidi sisters and brothers returned to their rebuilt homes and all kidnapped ones freed.

Once again, we congratulate all Yazidis on this occasion.
