Abstract
The article examines materials of the special UN International Independent Investigation Commission recognizing the crimes of the Islamic State terrorist organization (ISIS) against Iraq's Yazidis as genocide. There is a need for a positive response by the United Nations Security Council to the call of the Commission on referral of the Yazidis case to the International Criminal Court (ICC) or the creation of a Special Tribunal for these purposes. The necessity of the early recognition and condemnation of the genocide of the Yazidis by the State Duma of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation is highlighted. To suppress continuing to the present day genocide of the Yazidis and redrawing the ethno-religious maps of the region it is proposed to provide military and diplomatic aid to the Yazidi armed groups fighting against ISIS. Such a step is justified by the need to intensify the struggle against terrorists and terrorist organizations in Iraq itself, since the Yazidis are the most motivated to fight against Islamic radicals ethnic and religious minority.
