National Geographic Explorer - Fighting ISIS (2016)

Explorer Fighting ISIS

In June 2014, ISIS fighters swept across the Syrian border and tore into Iraq. The militant wave seemed unstoppable, until they reached the border of Kurdistan—a homeland of a fierce and forgotten people. Today, ISIS controls over a third of Iraq–but the Kurds have united like never before to defend their home. Who are the Kurds and the people who hold the line against ISIS? On Explorer Fighting ISIS, National Geographic writer Neil Shea travels to the heart of Kurdistan on a quest to meet the Kurdish fighters on the front lines against the world’s biggest terrorist threat.
