'I've been raped 30 times and it's not even lunchtime': Desperate plight of Yazidi woman who begged West to bomb her brothel after ISIS militants sold her into sex slavery
A young Yazidi woman forced into sex slavery by the Islamic State begged the West to bomb the brothel where she was being held after militants raped her 30 times in just a few hours, it is claimed.
The unidentified woman is understood to have been kept as a prisoner of the jihadists somewhere in western Iraq having been captured by ISIS during the Sinjar massacre in early August.
A group raising awareness of ISIS' persecution of women in the vast swathes of the Middle East under its control said the woman had contacted Kurdish peshmerga fighters by telephone to plead for the brothel to be bombed to put the women held as sex slaves out of their misery.
She allegedly told the fighters she had been raped so frequently that she could no longer use the toilet, adding that the ordeal has been so harrowing that she plans to commit suicide even if freed.

Horror: The woman said she had been raped so many times by ISIS militants (pictured) that she could no longer use the toilet, adding that the ordeal has been so harrowing that she plans to commit suicide even if freed
Details of the woman's brutal experience at the hands of the Islamic State emerged during an interview with Kurdish activists staging demonstrations in London to raise awareness of the plight of women in the Middle East.
During an interview with BBC World Service, a man identified as Karam described how a friend embedded with the peshmerga took a phone call from the Yazidi woman.
Describing the woman as crying on the phone, Karam quoted her as saying: 'If you know where we are please bomb us... There is no life after this. I'm going to kill myself anyway - others have killed themselves this morning.'
'I've been raped 30 times and it's not even lunchtime. I can't go to the toilet. Please bomb us,' he claimed the woman added.
Brutal: Last week the UN confirmed that thousands of Yazidis were slaughtered in scenes reminiscent of the Bosnian Srebrenica massacre when ISIS swept through northern Iraq in August
The group of Kurdish activists to which Karam belongs have been staging protests in central London to raise awareness of the plight of women living under the brutal oppression of the Islamic State.
Among their recent demonstrations was the establishment of a mock-slave market where niqab-wearing women were seen chained together while masked men used loudspeakers to auction them off to the highest bidder.
A video of the group's fake slave auction - run to shock those living in the West into confronting the grim reality of ISIS rule - has already been viewed more than 265,000 times on YouTube
The group says they used information provided by sources on the ground to help them portray the scenes authentically.
Last week the UN confirmed that thousands of Yazidis were slaughtered in scenes reminiscent of the Bosnian Srebrenica massacre when ISIS swept through northern Iraq in August.
Researchers, piecing together reports of attacks, have now concluded that more than 5,000 Yazidi were gunned down in a series of massacres by jihadist.
A further 5-7,000 women are also being held in makeshift detention centres, where they either been taken away and sold into slavery or handed over to jihadists as concubines.
Five detention centres in the town of Tal Afar is thought to hold around 3,500 women and children.

Kurdish hunger strikers stage protests seeking support against Isis jihadis

Members of the Kurdish diaspora have been staging protests and hunger strikes around the world in support of calls by Kurdish leaders in Syria for weapons to help their forces fighting Islamic State (Isis) in the besieged border town of Kobani, where they fear a massacre if support does not arrive soon.
While Kurds have taken to the streets of European cities, those in Britain have initiated a hunger strike close to the gates of Downing Street as part of a campaign calling for the UK to provide Kurdish forces with advanced weapons.
Volkan Celebi, a 22-year-old who travelled from Liverpool to take part in the hunger strike along with 29 others, said: “We are demanding heavy weapons and antitank missiles from the UK government and other European governments, not just the UK. We are just here and we will continue our hunger strike until we take it.”
Those taking part in the London protest include sympathisers of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), which is listed as a terrorist organisation in many western states including the UK and has close links to the Kurdish Democratic Union party (PYD), a group representing Kurds in Syria. It says that its calls for arms have been rebuffed by the United States and European nations and blames Turkey for obstructing his efforts.
Turkey, a Nato member that shares a long border with Syria, has so far declined to take a frontline role, fearful that the military action will strengthen President Bashar al-Assad and bolster the Syrian Kurdish militants allied to the outlawed PKK in Turkey.
This is despite an advance in the past 10 days by Isis fighters against the Kurdish YPG forces, the armed wing of the PYD, at Kobani, near the frontier that has caused the fastest refugee exodus of the three-year civil war.
Saleh Muslim, head of the PYD, told Reuters during a diplomatic mission to Europe: “We are asking everybody who can help us to provide weapons to the people fighting against tanks and artillery, but nobody is doing anything. There will be many who are martyred.”
Isis has laid siege from three sides to Kobani, where a steady stream of people, mostly men, have been crossing the border back into Syria, apparently to help defend the town. Muslim said most of them were originally from the area and had returned to defend the city after earlier fleeing to Turkey. He said that Turkey was preventing some fighters from entering Syria.
Evrim Yilmaz, 36, a politics student at the University of London’s Soas and a member of Roj Women, a Kurdish grassroots women’s rights movement based in London, said: “Up to 2,000 women [have been] kidnapped and raped by Isis. We want our women back. All countries have a responsibility to find them and bring our women to us.”
The UK began providing heavy machine guns and ammunition last month to forces from the Kurdish regional government who are fighting Isil in Iraq.

Anger as Kurdish protesters stage mock ISIS-style executions outside Downing Street the day after Alan Henning's murder
PUBLISHED: 17:37 GMT, 4 October 2014 | UPDATED: 11:13 GMT, 5 October 2014
Kurdish protesters who today staged a mock ISIS-style execution in London after Alan Henning was killed by the terror group have been blasted for mocking his death.
Two men were pictured wearing blood-spattered orange jumpsuits with knives held to their throats outside Downing Street today as part of Kurdish protests demanding stronger action against ISIS.
However their actions have been 'condemned' by a Muslim group, who said Mr Henning's death should not be used for political gain.

Anger: The demonstration came just a day after Alan Henning was beheaded by ISIS fighter Jihadi John
Opposition: The demonstrators, some of whom have been on hunger strike since Wednesday, are demanding more heavy weapons to help Kurdish fighters defeat ISIS
Mohammed Shafiq, the cheif executive of the Ramadan Foundation, said: 'I think anyone who has seen the outpouring of grief today will be totally disgusted by anyone who is staging mock executions.
'The Kurdish activists have a right to protest and demand extra weapons, what they do not have the right to do is mock Mr Henning’s death and recreate the execution.
'We reject this and condemn it without hesitation. What today should be about is Barbara and Mr Henning's family, not about trying to use the death for political gain.'
Several hundred Kurdish activists, some of whom have been on hunger strike in central London since Wednesday, are demanding heavy weapons and anti-tank missiles for use against ISIS.
They fear the town of Kobani, on the Syria-Turkey border, is about to be overrun by the terror group, which could lead to another massacre.
Their actions are likely to increase the emotional strain on Alan Henning's family, who have already said they are 'numb with grief'.
Paying tribute to her husband today, Barbara Henning said: 'As a family we are devastated by the news of his death. There are few words to describe how we feel at this moment.
'Myself, Lucy and Adam, and all of Alan's family and friends are numb with grief.Alan was a decent, caring human being. His interest was in the welfare of others.
'He will be remembered for this and we as a family are extremely proud of him and what he achieved and the people he helped.'
Mr Henning's brother also expressed hatred for the terrorists, describing the killers as 'scum', and saying he hoped they 'get what's coming to them'.

Elsewhere today the Stop the War Coalition also organised a march to Donwing Street, calling for Britain to halt it's bombing campaign against ISIS in Iraq.
Holding placards that say 'stop bombing Iraq' and 'don't attack Syria', activists branded the attacks on Islamic State 'insane'.
Referring to the brutal murder of British aid worker Alan Henning at the hands of Islamic State Francis O'Neill, 36, from Oxford said he had 'every sympathy' with his family, but said dropping bombs is not the answer.
Mr O'Neill said Britain inflicts 'equal barbarity' on the people of Iraq, but people here feel 'distanced' from it.
'Whether you see someone being beheaded or being hit by a drone strike...It makes no difference.'
RAF jets began bombing missions against militant positions in Iraq a week ago and David Cameron announced that two more Tornado bombers will join the mission on Thursday.
Mr Cameron has said he is also considering extending bombardments to Syria, the stronghold of ISIS, where the U.S. and other allies are already attacking.
However, the Prime Minister has said he will seek fresh parliamentary approval before doing so.
