22 abr 2007 año - Mosul Massacre

Descripción:

The 2007 Mosul massacre was a mass killing that took place on April 22, 2007, in Mosul, in northern Iraq. A bus carrying workers from the Mosul Textile Factory was hijacked by unidentified attackers. The attackers checked the passengers' identity cards, telling Muslims and Christians to get off the bus. They then drove the bus to eastern Mosul with 23 remaining passengers, all Yazidis, where the hostages were made to lie face down in front of a wall and shot.

The murder was partially motivated by the death of a supposed convert to Islam by stoning.
