DUHOK, Kurdistan Region – Kate Gilmore, the UN’s Deputy High Commissioner for Human Rights, told Rudaw that without the generosity of the people of Kurdistan, the many war refugees given shelter here would have suffered even more greatly.“Without that generosity of the people of Kurdistan those who have been displaced by the conflict would suffer even more,” she told Rudaw on a visit to the Sharya Camp in Duhok province.“Already the suffering is great,” she said. The suffering of people who have “fled, run away and being rescued from Daesh -- (ISIS) is terrible.”“Let me say the (Kurdish) government has been generous.”“In fact the need is so much, and there is not enough support for those who have been subjected to sexual violence,” she added.The Sharya camp houses some 17,000 IDPs, mostly Yezidi Kurds.
