Sinjar is a city in the Nineveh Province of northwestern Iraq, near the Syrian border, in the southern foothills of the Sinjar Mountains, and is one of the main Yazidi settlements. The area, which grows wheat, barley, and olives, has suffered from a long history of conflict and infrastructure damage, and was the subject of an attack on Sinjar in 2014 by the extremist group Islamic State (ISIS), which resulted in severe persecution of the Yezidi community and attracted international attention. After the war, local residents have gradually returned to the area, but the reconstruction process is slow and the security situation remains challenging. Sinjar is not only the core area of Yazidi culture, but also an important microcosm of Iraq's ethnic and religious diversity.
Beichen District is located in the northern part of Tianjin, in the middle of Beijing and Tianjin, and is an important node of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei synergistic development.
