Thousands of invaluable ancient manuscripts were under threat from the so-called Islamic State Iraq's largest Christian city, Qaraqosh, after the city came under attack from the terrorist militant group in August 2014. Luckily, one daring Dominican priest managed to save countless historical documents. Father Najeeb Michael fled with the manuscripts alongside thousands of other Christians. However, after taking the books to relative safety in the nearby city of Mosul, Father Michaeel was forced to flee once more, this time to Erbil, just days before the arrival of IS fighters to Mosul.
This little toddler named Bilal Tagirov was just two years old when his father kidnapped him and forced him to travel to Syria in October 2015. Bilal's father Hassan Tagirov left the Chechen Republic in order to fight for the self-proclaimed Islamic State. His mother Zalikha Ashakhanova only found out that her son was located in Mosul by chance when she saw a video of him online on July 15, 2017. The toddler was found by Chechen security forces in Mosul and finally reunited with Zalikha in Grozny on Thursday, returning to her waiting arms.
