JPost reports reports that:
'The situation for Syrian women has worsened since July at the hands of Islamic State, said Valerie Amos, the UN's under-secretary-general for humanitarian affairs and emergency relief.She described how women and female children as young as 12 are enslaved and sexually abused. "Women captured as slaves by [Islamic State] have been sold in markets in Raqqa. Some are sold to individual men. Others are kept by [Islamic State] in rest houses and face multiple rapes by fighters returning from the battlefield," Amos reported during a UN Security Council session on Monday."Kurdish refugees from Kobani reported the capture of young girls by [Islamic State] for sexual purposes, girls as young as 12."'
The BBC are less keen to report such news, after there's Israel to vilify.
Bt wif bungs me out of that link. They do that often, but not all the time. Sometimes it's one site that goes crook, other times it's a particular topic. It's obviously a coincidence, unless the various agencies attempting to get my identity crash my phone.
