The Briton fighting Islamic State in Iraq

A Kurdish man from Keighley in West Yorkshire explains why he has gone to Iraq to fight the so-called Islamic State (IS).

Several times a year Yasir Abdulla leaves his wife and four children at home to fight against IS and defend nearby Kurdish villages where he grew up.

BBC Inside Out reporter Emma Glasbey talked to the Peshmerga fighter about life on the front line. She also discovered his remarkable video footage chronicling his experiences.
