Hundreds of Yazidi people gathered in Şingal and blocked the Iraqi military from passing through to carry out an invasion against the local council, which deemed such a threat to be the 75th massacre/genocide against the Yazidi of the community.
A later march occurred, mainly made up of women and the YPJ, which condemned the attempted Iraqi occupation of the area. The Yazidi Resistance Units stated that they would not be swayed by Iraq, and joined the march.
