This time last year, Tahysn was a happily married father of two little boys aged three and four and lived close to his large, extended family in the village of Shangal in Iraq's Nineveh province. Now, home is a ramshackle refugee camp under the protection of Kurdish peshmerga fighters  and he is grieving the loss of his wife and sons. His story is far from unique. Like so many other Yazidis, his family were massacred by ISIS jihadis as they swept through northern Iraq in August. Like them, Tahysn has lost everything.
