More Yazidi Mass Graves; 264 Killed across Iraq

At least 264 were killed or found in mass graves, and 97 were wounded:

Yazidis returning to Sinjar may be looting Sunni homes and setting them on fire, according to eyewitnesses.
Some Sunnis informed on their Yazidi neighbors in the days after Islamic State militants overran the town last year, and Yazidis are anxious for payback. Kurdish officials have denied any revenge attacks are taking place. Much of the city lies in ruins.

In Sinjar, at least two more mass graves have been discovered. One is thought to contain 24 victims, and the other as many as 60 people. 

A Peshmerga commander in Sinjar said that 10 members were killed and 20 were wounded in the current bomb-clearing operation. Separately, 15 suicide bombers killed 11 Peshmerga and wounded 32 more during attacks.

Militants executed 73 of their own in Mosul. The men were accused of deserting the fighting in Sinjar.
