Climate crisis and water shortages block return to Iraqi villages after IS conflict

Climate crisis and water shortages block return to Iraqi villages after IS conflict

Nearly a decade after fighting with Islamic State ended in northern Iraq, many villages remain empty. Residents who have returned report that extreme heat and severe water shortages now make life nearly impossible. The lack of jobs and basic resources is preventing the repopulation of these areas.

Water is a blessing we take for granted. We need global action, but also local solutions from our governments. This is a crisis.

Man, first ISIS, now this? When will the suffering end for our brothers there? They need proper support to rebuild their lives.

It's heartbreaking to see people can't go home even after the war is over. Climate change is hitting the most vulnerable the hardest. May Allah ease their hardship.

No jobs, no water... What future is there? Makes you think about how fragile everything is. Praying for them.
