answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/04/2016 answer text <p>It is difficult to accurately estimate the number of Yazidi women who have escaped from Daesh captivity. Some reports suggest the figure could be approximately 2500 but there is no definitive estimate.</p><p>There are now over 3.4 million Internally Displaced Persons in Iraq. Our humanitarian partners do not take into consideration the ethno-religious origins of people requiring assistance. Assistance is provided on a needs basis, regardless of race, religion or ethnicity. It is therefore very difficult to breakdown figures for those being cared for by organisations in Iraq or in refugee camps in Turkey on the basis of religion.</p><p>To date, the UK has pledged over £2.3 billion of humanitarian assistance in response to the Syria crisis, and provided an additional £79.5 million to Iraq to help support those displaced by Daesh.</p> answering member constituency Bournemouth East answering member printed Mr Tobias Ellwood question first answered 18/04/2016 15:46:49 answering member 1487 label Biography information for Mr Tobias Ellwood
