Sinjar Mayor Mahma Khalil said he has submitted a project for the federal government and the local government of Mosul, which includes a timetable for the return of the displaced citizens to their original areas of residence.

The project would finish the issue the displaced people completely and forever, Khalil said, and would ensure stability in various fields of their areas.

Khalil referred to the displaced citizens, saying that the international statistics indicate that Yazidis represent 30 percent of the total number.

"This project is an integrated national project to ensure community peace and security stability," Khalil said, adding that "it is regrettable that funds are spent on this file, but are misplaced."
